Well, I personally have never seen the great appeal when it comes to The Doors. I can respect them for what they did, but nothing they ever did musically really tickled me much.

I disagree with the comments made on the annoying nature of David Byron's vocals. I think Uriah Heep were at their strongest when he was part of the line-up. Sure - they get incredibly "high" in many songs but so to does Ian Gillan of Deep Purple and not to forget David Surkamp of Pavlov's Dog - all of which has been discussed in previous threads.

Back to Eloy - I found in hard to get into Frank's vocals initially because of mispronunciation and flatness at times. However, I found that the instrumental side of Eloy overwhems the vocals after some listening. Perhaps it is the instrumental Eloy that most of us have come to appreciate rather than the vocals. Eloy are a package that includes Frank and like his vocals or not, he is part of the band that we fans hold in high regard.

i quite like frank's vocals, in a 'i am a fan and got used to his vocals' way..in high pitch it is distinctive and needs some getting used to but once you're there..you'll love it, in low pitch, his voice is quite warm..(for instance in thoughts of home from pnp or impressions from colours..'accent wise, i think frank has improved greatly from mixing the ws with vs in the earlier records to much better pronounciation in  later output..besides as cacho mentioned above, geddy lee's vocals can be quite tiring esp in earlier albums..and also need some getting used to..for eloy, at least they opted to sing in english for a wider audience..(although have no prob personally if they chose any language..)

as  a footnote..i think the worst accent i ever heard and makes frank an eloquent shakesperean in comparison is tale cue..(voice from beyond..) the music is gorgeous, the guitars splendid..the heavily accented vocals a disaster! truly..better if they opted for italian..
