Well the Markley, Van Camp, and Robbins show asked yesterday, who were the 5 best rock vocalists.
Robert Plant was #1, which I agree with.
Roger Daltrey should be #2.
Anyway I like their show, also there is an uproar that Rolling Stone left out Celine Dion.

I agree with Plant and Daltry. I also liked Ian Anderson from Tull. Ann and Nancy Wilson were also great as was Greg Lake.

If ronstadt isn’t top 10 it’s a weak list.

It’s too bad it’s Rolling Stoners. I’m not giving them a click. I would assume Bobby Hatfield (Rightous Bros) is on the list. And Luciano Pavoratti of course.

Are there even 200 good singers?

They overlooked the phenomenal Joe Williams (died 1992), singer for the Count Basie band in the ‘30s and ‘40s.
Saw him perform in 1991 at the Spoleto festival in Charleston, SC. He’s One Guy’s favorite jazz musician of any type.

I would definitely put Burton Cummings of the Guess Who and Mike Smith of the Dave Clark Five in the discussion.

I don’t think many of these people are “great singers”. I think they did songs that people liked, but the quality of the singing voice of many could not be considered “greatest singer”.

Wokeism and slavish obedience to political correctness, not quality, are behind most of the selections.

I just blasted through... but I didn't see Mahalia Jackson. I mean, that woman could hum better than most people could sing!

They are not just including rock, FWIW. I can’t get to all of the names as my connection is spotty.
Some names I would include if they aren’t there (there really are a lot of great popular singers from the last century...) in a longer list of people I love to listen to:
Levi Stubbs
Karen Carpenter
Doris Day
Clyde McPhatter
Mel Carter
Brook Benton

This list is BS. Karen Carpenter and Babs not in top 100? Babs regardless of politics has an amazing voice.

For rock, for me, it’s Van Morrison. Otherwise it’s Frank Sinatra.
