Best Male Singers of the 20th Century

There is an interesting current discussion about the best female vocalists on CD. I have my own ideas about the best male singers (any category) of the 20th Century, but would like to hear other opinions.

Just listen to "John Coltrane and Johnny Hartman" or "Monk on Monk" By TS Monk, for a couple of great examples of what these masters could do.
