Best Rock Voices?

Post by JacksSmirkingRevenge » Tue Mar 10, 2009 8:07 pm

So who has the best "rock voice" in your opinion?
I have to say the slightly shrill,jangling voice of a younger Geddy Lee of Rush gets my vote.
Him, and early robert Plant. :hum:



Edit:- Added video.

In that case, Steve Lee hands down.

The coward slave, we pass him by
We dare be puir for a' that.

Ozzy when he was in Sabbath.


Also Jaz Coleman from Killing Joke.

Ozzy!!!! Now there's a blast from the past. Lock up your bats ... :lol:

But I would go with Robert Plant:

I have always liked Roger Daltry.


Well,before I was born Roger. Not now, now he can barely breath let alone talk let alone sing :lol: Sounds more like Elvis Costello.

Seconded. I saw him with The Who a few times in the mid-70's. Some of the best gigs I ever saw.

If you can get past the fact that in this clip he acts like a Butlins redcoat and he has a silly surname, there's a lot to be said for Graham Bonnet.





Also, if someone could lend Ace a white blazer, we could start a tribute band. :tup:
