+1 on Roger Daltry His range is legendary. The best scream in rock and roll history is from Won't Get Fooled Again. |

Roy Orbison, never has been another like him... Though the Mavericks' Raul Malo gives one heck of a try.

Yeah, but he fried his voice. I played a concert with (what was left of) The Who in '94. His scream in Won't Get Fooled Again was uhhh.....bad. Then again...he was 50  R |

Damnit, why did layne staley have to die? If the rock gods had to take someone on heroin, why couldn't it have been the singer from stone temple pilots instead? |

Although he wasn't my first thought, I think I'm going to have to agree with the Roy Orbison posts.
The Travelling Wilburys are the greatest band ever...that's right, I said it. Orbinson, Dylan, Petty, Harrison, and Lynne in one band? Talk about undefeated coolness. |

HELL YEAH give them the respect they deserve. I love them guys, Bob dylan is the coolest. I like Roger,Pete and even John in The Who they all sing pretty sweet. |

I second that one. They're nu-metal, but his voice is great. Also, Paul Rodgers, Robin Trower, another vote for Freddie Mercury and Rob Halford, Warren Zevon ( is he considered rock?), Eric Adams, Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden wouldn't be Iron Maiden without him....), and John Bush. |

I wasn't gonna chirp in, but after seeing some of the names on the list I figured I can have my favorite too. Although he might not be the sweetest voice out there he sounds the same with or without any equipment behind him.
Steven Tyler Aerosmith is the greatest

You have to rank David Coverdale (from Whitesnake) up there near the top. I saw them live three years ago and he was still at the top of his game vocally.

He must've been having a bad night. I saw The Who in 2002 (right after Entwistle died) and Daltry sounded AWESOME. |

I dunno man. It was two concerts (Friday and Saturday) and his holler was equally bad both nights. The rest was OK though, it's just that when he went for the youthfull scream, it sounded...old. It's on CD too. R |

Chris Cornell - He can peel paint off the walls
Layne Staley - Love how he changed the inflection of his voice, too bad Heroin addiction took him  Geoff Tate - Queensryche - Operation Mindcrime - Like Cornell, can peel paint off the walls David Bowie - his voice changes from record to record Greg Allman - Just a great Blue's voice - the Allman's, what incredible musicianship!!!! |

Yeah, I love 'em too. It was a freakin' blast playing with 'em (at the time Moon was the only one not there, but Simon Phillips was playing so it was pretty good ). The concert was to also celebrate Daltrey's and Townshend's 50th birthdays. It was kinda sad really, cuz at that time Daltrey was still trying to be the young rock star...you know...long hair, tight jeans, leather jacket with no shirt...he looked pretty silly. He did give a funny speech though, basically saying how when he was younger he would always say "I hope I die before I get old...", and that now his outlook has changed a little bit. When Townshend came out (figuratively speaking, that is ,  he had close cropped hair, cool wire rim glasses, and a cool as shit Hugo Boss suit. Much more dignified and age appropriate. Then when Entwhistle came out, he was like the college professor. He was wearing tan cords, oxford shirt, tweed blazer with suede elbow patches, sporting a big ole' gray beard and smoking a pipe. R |
