Topic: Some Singers Posted: October 13 2014 at 22:54 |
Which one? For me, I'd say Stella. Well, maybe Daevid ... but Epitaph! Ok, Greg Lake. No, I'll switch to Wilson.

Slightly odd selection. Lake would be the only one in that list that I would regard as a 'front line' prog singer. Haslam, Wetton , Gilmour , Anderson(both) , Gabriel ,Fish etc are what I would expect next to Lake. I suppose it will be interesting to see if Lake storms away with this poll or whether there is some ELP backlash.

Lake by far.
Wright had a nice voice, certainly good for harmonies. Wilson is ok, although his voice can be a bit grating at times.

A tough choice, I'm not particularly enamored by any of these.

Lake followed by Wright, who I would have like to have heard more often.

Not really my kind of "singers" (some I'd call backing singers), but I do adore Wilson when he does his Doo wop thang. Sure there are times, when he is nigh on cringe worhty - especially lyrically, but when he is successful with his Doo Wop, I'm def on board.
Wright is ok for what he uses it for, but I would never think of him as a singer.
