Mr. Saturn's rating:

This list is under construction.

My favorite music created or co-created by GLBTA artists.

No artists are added based purely on speculation; please comment if an artist doesn't belong on this list.

I'm not familiar with these composers: John Cage and Aaron Copland.

Please recommend some music.

I'm not a fan of Judas Priest (the lead singer is gay), and the other artists mentioned in AfterElton's top 50 gay male musicians list, which appears as 'source' on my list.

I love you for including the A! :D

I don't know if you've listened to any of their music, but Baths (Will Weisenfeld) is gay and Patrick Wolf is bisexual.
