I think Nick Barrett of Pendragon sounds like Uli Jon Roth. 

For those that haven't heard Uli sing, that's not a complement.

It's funny you're talking about this guy because I was just having an argument with one of my friends concerning this guy's voice. I just can't stand it

I was sort of grasping at straws but remember the one time (last time) I listened to an album of theirs, I remember the voice being.... not exactly pleasing to the ear.  Funny thing about that though.... love Magma's vocal work but  some people I know would rather stick their head in a toilet than listen to Magma.  Once again I guess it's all relative....

Loving the justification.

... Oh, right, the poll.

Ok, here's what I think. It is my belief that a live James LaBrie has the worst voice in prog.

That statement gets me in trouble though, because I am a gigantic Dream Theater fan and I absolutely love his voice in the studio.

But I'm also a realist. And live....

Also, for some reason, I don't like the vocals in the band Glass Hammer. Couldn't tell you why, though. I just don't.

Have a nice day!

I thought about LaBrie... but don't we expect that standard of vocals from our metal vocalists.

I voted for James Labrie a bit earlier in this thread. I completely agree with you.

 Peter Gabriel fits both  ends of the spectrum extremely good  and extremely bad ( back in NYC) .Steve Howe got my vote.

 Worst performance throughout an entire album goes to Phil Collins on Invisible Touch. What on earth was he thinking?

I agree!  Listened to Live Scenes from New York - half the performance was out of tune.  Portnoy for DT vocals!

For all that said Geddy Lee, it is time for them to join the American Idol fans.

 

Geddy Lee is a great singer, granted he had to evolve but he spawned many.

Roger waters. I can't stand with his voice. So good that Gilmour saves 'Shine on" alive.

 

But my main complaint is about Bernardo Lanzetti, or whatever surname this guy has. he was the guilty for the destruction of PFM.

Saw James and the boys live 4 days ago, and I thought his vocal performance was excellent.  Best I've heard from him.
