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?

I saw Procol Harum live in the early 70s and I still think Gary Brooker had one of the best voices I've ever heard before or since, so, again, it's mystifying he'd be included in this thread.

To me, Roy Orbison had one of the greatest voices ever in popular music.

If you like to listen to singers who can't sing high notes without being off key, be my guest.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Jackson Browne. Not a bad voice, just not great. Incomparable lyricist though.
