best rock voices


looking for nominations for best rock voice, NOT best vocal performance.......looking for the rock-quality of the voice itself........my first obvious choice is the ORIGINAL Rod Stewart
desoto
Steve Winwood
Harry Nilsson
Marvin Gaye
Van Morrison
Felix Cavaliere
Bryan Ferry
Leon Russell
Jennifer Warnes
Art Garfunkel
Freddie McGregor
Tim Buckley
definitely grace slick and then robert plant although I don't like more of their stuff. Slick doine White Rabbit was simply fantastic.

Also, when I caught a middle aged Slick with a reformed Jefferson Airplane at the Fillmore (ten years back??) she was simply outstanding doing "Somebody to Love".

Jerry Garcia had a fairly weak voice but his timing/phrasing was up there with the best on a good night (which happened regularly enough to keep me going to over 200 Dead and Garcia shows since 1979).

Kenny Loggins....remember him? Great voice.
I'd have to say....Paul Rodgers singing "All Right Now" while he was with Free may be the all time greatest recorded rock vocal, IMHO, of course.

My personal favorites are Bono, Bon Scott, John Mellencamp, Patty Smith, John Lennon, Bradley Nowell...
Lou Gramm of Foreignor- Great male vocalist
Jennifer Charles - Elysian Fields
