Women get overlooked in rock but they have put out some great rock tunes over the years.
Stevie's vocals melt me like butter.
To: neverevergiveup
LOL, saw Tiny Tim sing that song on the Johnny Carson show.

Shoot... Didn’t see the rock and roll qualifier there. Just swap all non-rock songs on my list with anything by Shinedown, Maiden and/or JP.

Pages meandering 25 minute “solos” didnt help...but Plant way over sang his own songs...kinda of similar to what the ones today do with the national anthem at the Super Bowl...

1. Bob Dylan
Flame away!
Flame. Flame. Flamedy flame. Flame flame flame.
By the way, I love his music! :)

The road band used by Jay and the Americans (Jay Black) included a couple of guys named Donald Fagen & Walter Becker.
I think they (Fagen & Becker) tried to start a band of their own but “settled” for studio musicians.
I just can’t recall the name of that band...

"John Lennon...Best rock voice in the business."
Good, but best?
Now I'm a big Beatles/Lennon fan, but none of them were bluesy like Allman or Cocker, or powerful like Elvis or Burdon. Or even melodic like Van Morrison.
To: All
Harry Nilsson - Jump Into the Fire. That’s a pretty awesome vocal.
To: lefty-lie-spy
Nope. Just my favorite band. But I have shaken hands with Michael Anthony and Sammy Hagar. And I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Harry Nilsson - Jump Into the Fire. Thats a pretty awesome vocal. All I can think of when I hear that is Henry Hill getting chased by the helicopter.

Agreed. Lennon might be one of the best writers in the business. But far from one of the best vocalists.
To: PROCON
He isn’t a rock artist, but I think John Denver deserves a mention. He sang well, used accompaniment sparingly and it never hid or overpowered his voice. He was a very good songwriter and all of his lyrics can be clearly understood. Usually just his voice and his guitar in front of thousands of people. That takes courage.
