cookieman15061 Posted November 11, 2010 Author Share Posted November 11, 2010 Mickey Thomas is great http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90Xyy3-cha4 Ohhhh Yeah Sweet guitar solo by Elvin too. and to think this song was a last minute addition because the producer felt they were missing a single.

charlie brown Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 All, good examples... However, I seem to like distinctive, even unique voices, more than just "great" ones. Janis Joplin, Chrissie Hynde, Joan Jett, Janis Ian, Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Neil Young, "The Beatles(All)," David Crosby, Stephan Stills, etc... and other's, where their voices, fit thier music!

NeoConMan Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Tom Petty on his early stuff, up through Damn the Torpedoes and Hard Promises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 DirecTV is showing a new (2010) "Classic Albums" episode on VH1 Classic as I type this. Tom Petty - Damn the Torpedoes Channel 337 if you have a DTV dish. Mike Campbell is one of my favorite guitar players. Not a keyboard fan, but I would have Benmont Tench in my band in a heartbeat - very tasteful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 " Oh TOTO, I have the feeling we're not in KANSAS anymore." How about a Toto Kansas Reunion tour? (perhaps union since there's no re-union) With Boston? singing Sweet Home Alabama. OK enough from me. Paul Carrack - really great stuff. I like the Finn Brothers for a role in the slightly underrated singers category. Especially stuff on Woodface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duende Posted November 11, 2010 Share Posted November 11, 2010 Cookie, I don't think The Manic Street Preachers' James Dean Bradfield gets nearly enough vocal recognition. If you haven't checked the Manics out please do; they are a Welsh rock trio and James' voice is so full of angst! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNPVeQKxtQo Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always liked the vocal http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fymw5ie9Zd4 Thankyou, I always wondered who sang this...I had speculated it may have been Billy Preston...Many good and obscure posts... I'm suprised Rod Argent hasn't been mentioned yet ( Zombies and Argent ) Hold Your Head Up and God Gave Rock and Roll to You..... ( Has anyone mentioned Paul Carrik yet ? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevieC Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 How about James Dewar in the classic lineup of the Robin Trower Band. His voice was made to sing those songs like "Bridge of Sighs" and "Day of the Eagle". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 Yep - agreed. How about another pop guy? Robert Palmer. Much of his music was not my cup of tea, but I would have loved to have a front man like him in my band. Robin Zander of Cheap Trick was another one I always thought played the role just right.
