Now we know why Fripp never sang on any KC albums.

^From the video it's obvious Fripp is trying to sing badly on purpose.
How about Yoko Ono or the singer on the new PoiL Ueda release? |

So are we talking about singers who aren't great (which is very subjective), or listing musicians who DON'T sing because they aren't great according to themselves (which is more objective)?

Yoko is hard to take. Having a thick Japanese accent doesn't help. Junko Ueda (the Ueda half of PoiL Ueda) executes traditional Japanese singing. I wouldn't say she can't sing. It may be more that the style does not suit your years. Here is another singer Yuko Suzuhana with her folk trio Hanafugetsu. She sings in a traditional style, while in her other band, the Wagakki Band, she sings in a more contempory/pop, yet still Japanese, style. |

Steve Hackett doesn't have a great voice, but does not sing out of key, and has good vocalization. In fact, he is a decent singer, not the best, does not have the greatest vocal range, but his voice is ok and he knows how to adapt it to his music.

Ozzy hit some tough notes and has a unique voice. We saw him in 2010, and he was great. Impressive. I actually like Peter Gabriel's voice, but admit I haven't listened to much after his first "Car" solo album but Genesis was never the same. Quirky, unique.

I'm guessing Rick Wakeman can't sing because his solo albums are either instrumental, or he gets a singer in.

Personally, I like Squire's voice on Silently Falling. Neither Jon would have been a good fit for that song.

I don't dislike his voice, but Andy Latimer is better on guitar and flute. Nick Mason sung on one early PF song and wasn't worse than Roger Waters

I'm not sure that Jon Lord has ever sung either.

I don't mind Steve Hackett's singing. He's not any worse than Andy Latimer and probably better than Steve Howe. The two worst are probably Mike Rutherford and Tony Banks.
