Echarlie 0 Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) 1. Jon Anderson- YES 2. Jim Morrison- The Doors 3. Steve Perry- Journey 4. Nat King Cole- No one said it had to be a rocker 5. Geoff Tate- Queensryche Edited August 14, 2008 by Echarlie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icarus999 70 Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Messiah Marcolin- Candlemass- album: Nightfall. Mind blowing operatic technique on this album.... on the other albums they did he toned it down. Geoff Tate- Queensryche self titled EP ( Queen of the ryche) again the first album has better vocal dynamics and rocks much harder than the later releases. Jim Gillette- Nitro . Some of his bands had a bit of a butt rock influence.... but Gillette was/ is a true master class, opera trained vocalist with a six octave range. Jamie Vendara - world class vocal coach / studied under Jim gillette / guest on discovery channels myth busters ( shatters wine glasses with no amplification ) Bruce Dickenson - Iron Maiden Ripper Owens - iced earth /judas priest/yngwie malmsteen Warrel Dane- Nevermore Edited August 14, 2008 by Icarus999 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
