Is THE BEST vocal in R&R?

There is no doubt that Robert Plant was and is an amazing voice. None better in my opinion. I would like to recognize the comment about Grace Slick also. Grace is fantastic as well!
THE BEST?

Probably not, but he's certainly one of the better rock singers.

(I'd put him up there with the likes of McCartney, Morrison, Daltry, Cornell and a multitude of others. IMHO, being a good rock singer is very much a matter of taste, and there is no one BEST singer.)

My two cents worth.
Robert Plant was the second choice for the New Yardbirds and only got the job after Terry Reid turned it down. Reid was also offered the Deep Purple spot that eventually went to Ian Gillan.
