See the bassist poll... and, by the way, it's Hughes - though there used to be a joke like that when he was grossly overweight, at the time he recorded "Seventh Star" with Tony Iommi.

Ian Gillan. Listen to Child in Time off Made In Japan, probably the best vocal performance ever.

You must be kiddin  >> the main man to have destroyed Classic Purple with his stupid Funk influences >> caused Blaclmore to leave
Evans, Coverdale or Gillan for me

let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword

I'm not kiddin'  - Glenn is my favourite vocalist, and I quite dig his funk influences! That said, Gillan and Coverdale are also great, though very different from each other.

I agree.  His singing in "Child In Time" really touches me, and sometimes takes me some tears ..  . Surely on my 'top five' best singers ever !!
