tonykay -- Tim Buckley is one of my favorite artists. I gotta say, though, that the one time I saw him perform, at the Troubadour some years after his peak, he was absolutely awful. At least to my ears. Sure, it was okay that he might not want to revisit his more successful days, but essentially, all he did was randomly strum his guitar and shriek.
The "other" singers you enjoy.........?
Most on this forum can name the well known great male and female (pop/Jazz) singers.....usually meaning the gift of a great voice with intelligent use of great song writers. But what about those "other" singers of both genders that you enjoy that are not the "usual suspects"?
Roseanne Cash, Valerie Carter, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, James Taylor, Dinah Washington, .,...gosh, even Del Shannon (Tom Petty and several other's favorite) ....Mel Torme, Chet Baker....etc.
.....and one that many consider a great voice, but still often left out, Roy Orbison.
And your "other" singers? And,....as one of the most mentioned would say...."thank you, thank you very much".
