As for this specific list, they nailed #1 and then stopped trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 4 hours ago, Buftex said: Thumbs up for recognizing what a great back-up singer Keith Richards is/was. For me, I would put Tina Turner pretty high on my list... and if we are not sticking strictly to rock'roll George Jones. Frank Sinatra (who also wasn't on this list for some reason) once said his favorite singer was George Jones. I get country music isn't a lot of people's thing, except the hip ones like Willie and Johnny Cash. But the natural talent George Jones had is easily top 15 if not top 10. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snafu Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Daryl Hall can sing with the best of them -- but he's a pop star. Same with Paul Weller, but he's too obscure I suppose. Bryan Ferry was left out. Not including Meatloaf is stupid. If you're going to have Axl Rose, you might as well put David Lee Roth in there -- and you can substitute all kinds of artists for ones that were included (like Stevie Winwood instead of Steve Wonder). Oh -- and they included the Everly Brothers as one entry, and Art Garfunkel alone, but no Paul Simon? Edited October 23, 2019 by snafu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had one of the most unique voices ever and also one of the top front men ever. Frank Sinatra is the greatest voice ever and where is he ranked on this stupid list? Great calls on Cornell, Staley and Scott. Other omissions of note: Patsy Cline Geddy Lee Gregg Rollie Amy Winehouse Scott Weiland Jeff Lynne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
