I voted Jon Anderson, but my vote would always go to Cedric Bixler-Zavala of The Mars Volta.

What are you talking about? Phil Collins was nothing more than a pop singer, Gabriel was great. And Lake and Anderson were known for thier compositional skills, not vocal.

Daniel Gildenlow is the best prog vocalist in my opinion, and the best rock vocalist in general.

I voted chamaleonic Peter Gabriel on this one, but I think Fish, Roger Waters and Andy Latimer are missing here

"What are you talking about? Phil Collins was nothing more than a pop singer, Gabriel was great"

You betcha Riph! But I do recognize that what he did on "A Trick of the Tail" and "Seconds Out" was simply outstanding.

Jon Anderson, though i think it is mainly because he is backed up by Chris Squire.
I can feel no sense of measure

Any such vote without including Peter Hammill is ridiculous. And the argument about "standing test of time" that Mark gives definitely fails for Peter Hammill. He stood the test of time for over 35 years. My vote definitely belongs to PH.

The 2 Peters , Gabriel and Hammill have always been at the top for me although Cedric from The Mars Volta is catching up.

Gabriel hid his naff vocals behind his theatrics...never could stand him or Collins....Anderson was way to light...so Lake wins it for me...cos he is sooooo much better than the other prats.

I actually went with Collins!  technically, he is a better VOCALIST than gabriel, but I'd sure as hell rather gave gabriel in my band, because he's a more interesting frontman.
