Earlier this evening I was listening to Pearl Jam's "Ten", which I hadn't put on for some time, and started thinking of how great a vocalist Eddie Vedder is. Besides, I recently acquired Soundgarden's "Badmotorfinger", and was surprised at Chris Cornell's almighty set of pipes.

Have you heard the song Hunger Strike by Temple of the Dog? That song has both Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell on it.
Some of my favorites:
Buzz Osborne (Melvins)
Billy Corgan
Bruce Dickinson
Marilyn Manson
Elijah Blue/P. Exeter Blue I (Deadsy)
David Bowie
Mark Mothersbaugh
Jello Biafra
Brian Wilson
David Thomas (Pere Ubu)
Tom Waits
Rahzel
James Hetfield
Freddie Mercury
Marc Bolan
Tim Buckley
Kurt Cobain

He was. Unfortunately, he died in 2004...  |
Yes...
But everytime I'm hearing him singing on my discs (or even just remembering his voice), he IS for me...

Well, all singers I wanted to post had been already mentioned. Almost. One's missing - Michael Kiske (ex Helloween).

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

Eric Clapton
Bruce Dickinson
Tracy Chapman

Chris Cornell is maybe the best singer ever... I don't know...
Soundgarden was very good, but you can forget about Audioslave...

I love female vocalists like Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, or Fiona
Apple. I wish there were more female singers in prog bands.
Some more: Robert Plant, Roger Daltrey, Chris Cornell, Layne
Staley, David Draiman of Disturbed. I could go on and on -
there's a ton of great vocalists outside of prog.

The already mentioned Czeslaw Niemen is Prog since he's listed in this site (Prog or not, he's great singer  ).
The already mentioned Jim Morrison and Maddy Prior -- I (personally) consider The Doors and Steeleye Span Prog.
I like the voice of George Brassens, and that of Salvatore Adamo, and that of Demis Roussos too (outside The Aphrodite's Child).
Now, I don't know how many of you are acquainted with the following names: Kaigal-ool Khovalyg, Sayan Bapa, Anatoly Kuular, Alexey Sariglar, Mergen Mongush, Andrey Mongush..? They are Tuvan (throat-)singers (the group Huun-Huur-Tu ). Incredible singers, Kaigal-ool Khovalyg especially. |
