The obvious... Waylon 
Phil Collins doesn't make my soul melt or anything but he's a hell of a vocalist! Peter Gabriel, too. I'll be back with many more!

Aretha!!
...and I am convinced I'll never hear two voices blend and harmonize as beautifully and perfectly as Simon and Garfunkel...although..."The Eagles" did really nail down the harmonizing thing too.

Re: Favorite vocalists
Ive long thought that 2 of the best and certainly most versatile voices in rock and roll are Paul McCartney & Elton John. And 2 of the worst are Neil Young and Kieth Richards. Incredible musicians, but ya have to wonder how these guys made careers with voices like that.

Is KEITH RICHARDS still alive? I think the jury is still out on that one! NEIL YOUNG? That's a voice made for swallowing hydrochloric acid and a face made for a LOUISVILLE SLUGGER!!!
Can you tell I'm not a fan of either gentlemen?

I know. It's been brought to my attention many times that I need to open up more, let it out! Maybe that's a cause of my erectile dysfunction. Ya think? If that's a contributing factor to my problem and opening up will cure it, well then ladies, look out. I'll be pokin' and smokin'!!!!!!!!
