Who is your best male lead vocalist?

Recommended Posts

Well...We have chosen the favorite band and favorite guitar player.

Isn't it time for our favorite lead singer?

 

My choices are:

Steve Perry of "Journey". one of my all time favorites . he can range his voice from silky soft to a thousand thunders.

Robert Plant of "Led Zeppelin". The man with an electric guitar in his throat!!!

 

David Coverdale of "White Snake". The roaring man!

 

Ronnie James Dio of "Rainbow". I don't know where to put my finger. I just love him.

 

Ian Gillan of "Deep Purple". in his good days there was no second to him.

 

Last but not least: Freddie Mercury of "Queen". do I need to say why?

 

Cheers.

Paul McCartney and John Lennon...ok, neither was actually the "lead" because they switched off, but that was part of the brilliance!

I think Sting is among the best male vocalists. Also Peter Gabriel.

Personal favourites...

 

Thom York of Radiohead.

 

The one and only Morrissey.

 

I like David Bowie's voice too.

 

None of these are "the best" but they do it for me.

Just about anything they cover is great.I really love their cover of World In My Eyes originaly by Depeche Mode and even the Bette Middler cover The Wind Beneath My Wings is cool.All around great band.
