Personal favorite is Kitchener. Love the way his music made steelband talk...that sweetness is missing from the pan music we're getting now.

but admitedly, Sparrow would sell out..

I have always loved the Mighty Sparrow
His ability to be a fantastic wordsmith in English and other languages fascinated me from young.
And some of his french used to drive my step mother crazy  ;D ;D ;D ;D
occasionally Lord Kitchener would grab my attention with a tune of his.

That is a tough one.  I like both but I think that Sparrow would sell out first and I would pick Sparrow concert if I had no other choice. While they are both good in their own ways, Sparrow music, especially his early days, Jean & Dinah, Congo Man... those ones...his mastery of word play.  It has crossed generations.
