Those singers you enjoy,....that don't really have a great voice?
There have been successful singers in almost any style that realistically did not have a "golden" voice. Perhaps guilty pleasures. Who are yours?
Agreed about Jerry Garcia in his later life. As his voice got worse, his singing got better.
Also Mick Jagger. As Chris Robinson said about Mick “Man, for someone who can’t sing, that guy can sing!”
+1 for bigtwin
Leonard Cohen
Van Morrison
Okay -- you guys found one I can swing with... Utterly no voice. But capable of delivering the real true center of a song. Leonard Cohen.
