This list could change before the night is over, but right now. I really love the following in no particular order. Could have easily named another 10 or so more and I wouldn't feel so guilty about leaving so many great people off the list

Mercury
Lennon
Chris Cornell
Eric Clapton
Chris Robinson

Steve Perry- The most recognizable voice in rock

Kevin Ayers- I describe his voice as deep, posh and excruciatingly English! Love it!

Layne Staley- Alice in Chains stood out in a sea of horrible grunge due to Layne's haunting vocal style.

Mark Knopfler- He dosen't sing a song, he tells you about it.

Ronnie James Dio- May he rest in peace. The ultimate heavy metal voice.


gotta add a runner up:

Peter Steele- Evil, sensual goth at its finest!

Our two lights here forever

And through that longing to be one
The parting summons sound is wrong
I'll see you back to travel on
And on and on, around the sun

JOHN LENNON
DAN AUERBACH (the Black Keys)


Dan Auerbach in my opinion is the greatest rock n' roll singer since LENNON.
