GypsyRoad Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Oh man I forgot to mention one of my favorites: Paul Rodgers rocks.............

Barry Berry Posted April 30, 2009 Report Share Posted April 30, 2009 I'm still sticking with Steve Marriot...to me, he always sounds like he really means it He really defined a certain drawl/growl check out his one...from 1972, here's Steve with Humble pie (their first album with Peter Frampton in the line up) 'Thirty Days In the Hole'- by Humble pie that's one sweet snarl, babies! Think Bon Scott might have heard this one? listen again and see, especially during the verses yeah, I know there are others...I just never felt the man got his proper respect (it was prolly hard to live down "Itchygoo Park""....hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pinkstones Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 I'm quite ashamed I forgot to include Jim Morrison in my initial list. I can't imagine those songs sung by anyone else....he just made them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viaene Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 I'm gonna give a honourable mention of Jimi Hendrix here. The man's voice wasn't all that spectacular, but I find his way of singing, his intonation very enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonJonSurfer Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 Greg Lake is overlooked a great deal. He has a fantastic voice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foolonthehill Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I agree, I love his work on King Crimson's first album, and he did some pretty good stuff with ELP too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c_s_1987 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Don't know if Greg Lake has been mentioned or not but in his prime he had a beautiful singing voice. Look at the first ten or so posts on the first page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichelleLBC Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 I really like Christina Aguilera's voice. Too bad she overdoes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkstones Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 I really like Christina Aguilera's voice. Too bad she overdoes it. I agree. However this thread is for great male singers and Christina is a chick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
byslah Posted June 24, 2009 Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 Peter Hammill: His voice is very clear and powerful. When i listen his songs (with or without Van der Graaf Generator) i think that the feelings in them are true. He can sound as a very angry and sweet person at the same time: Man-Erg (Bootleg live version) John Lydon: His voice is the voice of desperation. When I feel angry and I can't shout around, I listen the John Lydon's voice in songs like Annalisa and he shouts for me. Klaus Nomi: A very weird singer that could sing as a woman (he was a countertenor). Another powerful voice but in a different way. His music was very funny and, sometimes, very sad too: The Nomi song Lightning strikes His amazing version of Purcell's "Dido's Lament" (DEATH) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
