I'm talking about the complete package here - writing both music and lyrics, vocals, multiple instruments.

My vote would go to Dan Fogelberg.

A close second would be Paul McCartney, of course.

Tom Waits comes to mind. Also Randy Newman, although he's getting old and comfy writing soundtrack music for Disney.

Regionally, Robert Earl Keen, Jerry Jeff Walker and Ray Wylie Hubbard.

Of them all, I would cast my first-place vote to Hubbard.
