greatest rock and roll voice

[boltman]

Who gets your vote for greatest rock voice of all time? Here is mine.

 

[99TRILLS]

I respectfully disagree and put freddie Mercury as the number one.

 

[King Kill 33]

Hard to not include Mick in the mix. Also hard to pick a song to represent. So diverse.
LA Woman is money too.


- KK33

I can't pick a favorite, but here's one that might get left out of the discussion. Powerful voice!

I gotta throw Ronny Van Zandt in the mix

While I'd love to agree @boltman, being that I'm a huge Doors fan, but I'd have to say "best" voice goes to Freddie Mercury

Steve Perry gets my vote.

Opinions are like, well, you know.
Daltrey, Plant, Geddy Lee, Paul Rodgers, Steve Winwood. To name a few.

My vote is for Roger Daltrey.

The answer to the question is obviously Robert Plant. No contest.

Honorable mention to Mick Jagger and John Fogerty.

I am a huge Led Zeppelin fan, but the answer is not Plant. His voice is actually fairly terrible. There is a reason why they over dubbed his vocals so much on the records. Now, if you're just talking about being a frontman he and David Lee Roth are at the top of the list. If the question is strictly about singing, the answer is indeed Freddie Mercury.

Add another one for Freddie Mercury. He is simply, the best ever. I don't think we'll have another Freddie Mercury in my lifetime.

Interesting story though. A radio station in the UK ran a poll of their listeners to create the ultimate super group. They could vote for ANY rock artist for Singer, Lead Guitarist, Bassist and Drummer. Plant won Singer, Jimmy Page was voted best Guitarist, John Paul Jones as Bassist, and you guessed it, John Bonham as best Drummer.

So the ultimate super group, according to UK radio listeners is Led Zeppelin.

Freddie Mercury appears to be running away with this

You have to to take that with a grain of salt. The U.K. did also just vote Boaty McBoatface as the best name for a boat.

I'm gonna just pretend I didn't read those first two lines and go on about my day.

Also- boaty mcboatface has a nice ring to it.

Love Mercury, Rodgers, Plant, and a bunch of others mentioned. Chris is just my addition to the conversation.

 

[Mr.Draned]

I'm also going to go with Freddie Mercury.
