An old favorite from my Brooklyn youth, by a bunch of local guys who made good - didn't get too much US airplay outside of the NYC area, became a major hit in the UK (also covered by the Walker Brothers) in the early days of Radio Caroline:

Probably Merle Haggard!

[Glennwillow]

I always wished I could sing like Lou Gramm from Foreigner.



- Glenn

[AusTexMurf]

Crosby Stills and Nash
Pick one...

[Silurian]

The Man in Black.

A voice hewn from granite.

[Mooh]

A former band mate has a voice capable of anything, he's worked very hard to develop and maintain it over the years. I could work solo if I could sing like him.

Otherwise maybe Ian Gillan (Deep Purple), or Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull).

I think it’s awesome that some of the choices I don’t even like to listen to!

Fascinating, nonetheless!

Scott

Lots of good choices posed thus far...on any given day, I’d be very happy with most of them.

Today: John Lennon.

[DungBeatle]

Elvis, Robert Plant, Bon Jovi.

Stan Rogers is the first name that came to mind, from an acoustic / folk perspective.

Bruce Dickinson (Iron Maiden), from a metal/hard rock perspective.

[Joseph Hanna]

I can’t pick only one cause it really depends on my mood.

#1 for over all best tone and emotion; Paul Carrack. #2 for over all pure guttural rock and roll; Paul Rodgers. #3 for best vibrato; Bonnie Raitt.

Close behind my top 3, Dean Martin, Freddy, Daryl Hall, David Pack.
