My favorite are Maynard James Keenan (although more for his work with APC), Steven Wilson, and Mariusz Duda.

Well, apart from Jon Anderson, I'd go with some Italian vocalists: Demetrio Stratos, Francesco di Giacomo, Aldo Tagliapietra and Nico di Palo.
(But the most beautiful voice ever was Jeff Buckley's... I know it's not prog, but I had to write it! Missing you...)

Agree on Anderson and LaBrie. Also, Peter Gabriel, Ian Anderson, Steve Walsh (Kansas), Neal Morse, and (yes - better as he has become older) John Wetton...

Hard to rank, except number 1:
1. Francesco Di Giacomo
...the rest
Freddie Mercury (Queen was prog before News of the World, my opinion and I stand by it)
Cedric Bixler-Zavala
Ian Anderson
Mike Patton
Daniel Gildenlow
Adrian Belew
Annie Haslam
Christian Vander
Peter Gabriel (more for his presnce than his voice)
My least favorites:
Despite my love for progressive technical metal...I don't really enjoy any  .
James LaBrie is particularly annoying too.

George Duke would stand out amongst those.

looks like I forgot Annie Haslam, Steve Winwood, and Justin Hayward. Hayward would definately be in the top 5 or so.

Gosh, that's a cookie monster? Fantastic!!!    for mentioning my fellow Roman Francesco Di Giacomo, who gets mentioned all too rarely - same as the late Demetrio Stratos. I also forgot to mention Cedric B-Z, and another great Jimmy Row listed as one of his favourites... Steve Winwood, who has a special meaning for me  .
