at a loss to think of one that I would consider a ....worst voice of prog...

I've heard (one album)... that guy from The Mars Volta

I think Nick Barrett of Pendragon sounds like Uli Jon Roth.
For those that haven't heard Uli sing, that's not a complement.

Well, in my country Demis Roussos was very popular, especially in the 70s (that decade was a tragedy in my country in musical terms, with small exception of SBB) and for me he was an epitome of prog traitor, who sold himself to the pop. You see this fat, bearded guy, clad in white robes, singing about romantic love - gross. |
Demis was also very popular here, I listened his music as soloist (and hated oit) long before I heard Aphrodite's Child, and I simply couldn't believe he was the same guy, and less that he was such a good bass player, because during his pop career he mainly sung (I saw a few concerts by him because the dad of one girlfriend was Roussos fan and he was only singing).
And yes his looks were at the least peculiar.
But I insist, his music sucks but he had a great voice.

Roger's voice quite emotional, right.
Adrian Belew is not a great singer, right, and Discipline era KC was firstly meant to be strictly instrumental

I dunno...Adrian Belew's voice really irritates me on some of his ballads, I
have to say...and more times than one, he seems to be doing this weird
thing where he's talking and singing at the same time...using "Elephant Talk"
as an example...I dunno....I like most prog rock singers...

Roger Waters voice irritates me much more than Geddy Lee ever would.
It sounds like he's always whining like a spoiled little boy.

Yes, he really sings on Thick As A Brick, rather than recitates.

The longest person i took to get into was Ian Anderson. Songs like Hymn 43 his voice is just odd. But now I kinda like it, think he did best on Thick As A Brick

1. IMO, Roger Waters usually doesn't sing, but rather says or yells the words. I think he does a great job of that, for what it's worth.
2. I'm surprised only 2 or 3 people have mentioned Nick Barrett. He's usually called on of the worst. I think he's unique and very talented, however.
3. Yeah, DT were a lot better off with Dominici...
4. Peter Nicholls gets very tiring after awhile.

He could be a bit annoying, right, but I'd rather say his voice is unique, making Yes music celestial.
