[spacehead333]

Brent Midland
Jerry Garcia
Gregg Allman

[Chuckles]

Lotsa good ones up there...

I'd add Eva Cassidy, Ella Fitzgerald, Luciano Pavarotti and Jessye Norman.
<on> Oops, Rev Roach had Ella and Pavarotti...

[spacehead333]

forgot about Bayliss, he is pretty good

[d-v-s]

i'd have to start off with the jazz folks:
Ella Fitzgerald
Frank Sinatra
Diana Krall

Move onto soul:
Aretha Franklin
Alicia Keys
Michael Jackson (up to age 15) - think "i'll be there" and "who's lovin' you" type soul songs. too much soul for a little kid.

throw in some classic rockers:
robert plant
Crosby Stills & Nash
Jimi Hendrix - always love when he solos the notes he's singing as he's singing them...
Joe Cocker
Freddie Mercury
Stevie Nicks
Ozzy!!

add a few current rockers:
Kurt Cobain
Warren Haynes
Brad Nowell
Amy Lee from Evanescence - something so sweetly haunting about her voice. "my immortal" always chokes me up.

and finish up with the favs:
Garcia
Simon & Garfunkel
Johnny Cash

[Rev_Roach]

arlo guthrie

if by "singing" you mean to include his story telling then hell yeah!

[grateful4booze]

No order here.

Jerry
Pig Pen
Bob
Roger Daltrey
Rod Stewart
Chris Robinson
Warren Haynes
Geddy Lee
Eric Bloom
Bon Scott
Rob Halford
Bob Dylan
Ronnie Van Zant
Stevie Ray Vaughan
Ray Davies
Grace Slick
Steve Stills
Ray Charles
Steve Marriott
Roger McGuinn
David Bowie

I'll think of ten more as soon as I log off!

[lyghtningod]

Marty Balin? Someone mentioned Grace, but i think Marty had the second best voice in rock. It's No Secret, their first hit, was cool with Marty singing that high tenor.

Roger Daltry is the best in rock IMHO, along with the 3 Band members, Danko, Manuel and Helm, and the Righteous Brothers (OK, pop more than rock).

And Aretha

[ronster]

Surprised not to see Greg Lake, Ian Anderson, Steve Winwood, and Brad Nowell on anyones lists. So I'll add them along with some of the usual suspects
Mick Jagger
Roger Daltry
Jim Morrison
Robert Plant
Jimi Cliff
Jack Bruce
Muddy Waters
Jerry
Willie

[High Peaks]

All the obvious choices. ( Since is why i enjoy this particular board)

Then some contemporary:
Cassandra Wilson
Ray Lamontague
Norah Jones
Huckleberry Hound( the best Darling Clementine ever!)
Chris Robinson

[tigerstrat]

Michael Bolton. For my money, I don't know if it gets any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman".
