BillsPride12 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Although he was never praised for his singing I always thought Jimi Hendrix's singing ability was underrated , probably because it was overshadowed by his guitar playing but there was just something really soulful listening to Jimi sing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim in Anchorage Posted February 9, 2010 Author Share Posted February 9, 2010 I doubt any folks here have heard this tune before, but it features four outstanding, distinct vocals. The song is called 'Secret Garden,' it's a slick love making tune. Play it for that special lady. Artists: Barry White James Ingram El DeBarge Al B. Sure Secret Garden Definitely in. I am surprised no one mentioned Lou Rawls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texasjute Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Good thread. Four pages and no Ella Fitzgerald? Ella singing the songbooks is one of the most important and influential contributions in the history of recorded music. That's a voice - listen to at least 1:30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrojanitor Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 Here's an obscure name, but does anyone know Antony Haggerty? He fronts this arty cabaret group called Antony and the Johnsons. Amazing voice that sounds like a male Nina Simone. Certainly not for everyone, but if you can dig on soaring vocals with piano and strings it'll kill you. Klaus Nomi had a cool/weird voice too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
