So this is the third of my 'Top 5' editions of blog posts. This week I'm looking at vocalists. I haven't shared any of the others here, although I have done at Progarchive's partner site MetalMusicArchives. So I'll link 'em all up here. What do you think? How do my lists compare to yours? And who would be your top five singers/guitarists/bands?

4. Peter Gabriel
5. Dagmar Krause

For general purpose:

Peter Hammill

But i could put a list of about thirty together with no preferences outside prog, probably.
