Voted PG!

It was a tough choice, though. I like Jon Andersons voice a lot, and Hammills, and Geddy Lees, and Phil Collins..AND Greg Lake (although I'm not an ELP fan)

I tried to make my choice on the quality of the voice rather than which bands I like.

and to whoever said Justin Hayward deserved a mention, I couldn't agree more. He had a fantastic voice. Didn't rate the Moody's much though..

Ultimately bored by endless ecstasy!

for those who care, Ronnie Montrose in available for
discussion thru his website. Music From Here is an
incredible contribution to rock music, a 90s version
of Blow by Blow from the guitar wizard.

Not totally unique. He sounds very similar to David Surkamp of Pavlov's Dog and Burke Shelley of Budgie

 

Geddy Lee is totally unique of Burke Shelley indeed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Mr Erg!

Only person i think sounds like geddy at times is the singer of supertramp, he had geddy's 80's sound before geddy did himself

Greg Lake has a pure English enunciation (sp?) that is perfect for the gravitas of prog rock.He could sing about bananas and make it worth listening to.Justin Hayward must be worthy of a mention as well.

I voted Gabriel.
I don't agree with people on John Wetton though, because I find he is very flat and his voice is yucky. meh...every man his own I guess...

so very difficult but Jon Anderson's voice has reigned supreme for me closely followed by Peter Hammill closely followed by Gabriel and Fish and Lake.
