Lemmy from Motörhead (RIP), amongst others, would agree with that sentiment. Such a major influence on so many artists and a true game changer.

Some call him The King. Influenced so many people, The Beatles included.

I love Fred Willard - completely steals the show in Waiting For Guffman, Best in Show and A Mighty Wind despite only having minor roles in the latter two. A proper funny guy - RIP Fred.
