Well we seen everyones pick on best rock drummer and guitar player...Now how about them singers...

Hard to say
Robert Plant has a voice like no other..I mean when you got Page on the guitar and Bonham on the drums you gotta sing high...

I also like John Forgery of CCR i think he sings good to



If anyone likes blues as much as me
Check out Tony Joe White he can sing some blues
also like Junior Wells,Otis Spam,B.B.King and Muddy Waters

I figured this was coming :-)


Robert Plant

Jeff (forget last name) Queensryche

Steve Perry from Journey (go ahead and laugh at me, I love those guys)

James from Dream Theater

The guy from "Triumph", and the guy form ".38 Special", names escape me.

Paul Rodgers of Bad Company fame.



Addendum: Singers that Suck!
Why these yokels ever made a singing career, I'll never understand. I apologize in advance for this and suspect I will get blasted.

Neal Young

Bob Dylan

Mr Wizard. You got taste. The only people I would add are Sebastian Bach, Chris Cornell, and Steven Perry.

How about Freddie Mercury?

Plant was obviously great, so was the aforementioned Paul Rogers (Rodgers) of Bad Co., Steve Perry could wail on the falsetto's - but Mercury was a phenom.

Yeah, Sebastian Bach ... could ROCK ... his voice that is!

Yeah Ozzy continues (against all oddz) to be "the BliZZard" - but not really a great 'singer' - he rocks, but not much vocal talent to speak of - outside of a studio.

I was on my way home tonight ,when I heard one of the best voices in rock on the radio. It made me realize, that we may have been somewhat sexist in our nominations.

The Wilson Sisters (Heart) could probably sing circles around any of the guys we listed. These girls were all Rock-n-Roll !!!! At least up until the late 80's when they toned it down a bit.

I'd also nominate Pat Benatar, she sings everything from opera, jazz, soft and hard rock. Great voice.
