MULTIPLE VOTES ARE ALLOWED! (up to 3)  David Bowie maybe isn't really prog but he made the cut anyway. Ok, I actually just took out "uncle Frank" and put in "aunt Annie" instead.  I also left off Richard Sinclair and a whole host of others so please vote for them in the other section and mention which ones you like best. Multiple votes are allowed (please only up to three).

Hey Paul, that's one of the fastest responses I've ever seen for one of my polls. Do you have a bed on here somewhere too?

In the 70s and 80s, he was amazing.

Ok, I just took out Syd Barrett and put in Steven Wilson instead.

There's some serious competition in the poll. No surprise that he's ignored.

I sometimes manage without a bed entirely if I'm on a 24-hour music marathon, just as I was a couple of days ago.

I had to look him up. I'm not much of a fan of Symphony X. I have one cd by them, The Odyssey, and it skips. Oh well. They are a band that I just never got around to except for that one. Thanks for the mention though.

He also sings on many Ayreon/Star One albums. IMO the best “traditional” (non-growling) singer in the Prog Metal domain. ------------- https://awesomeprog.com/release-polls/pa" rel="nofollow - Release Polls Listened to:

I'd certainly put Björk and Kate Bush on top positions of my list. From those listed Annie Haslam & Peter Gabriel. Many more great singers on that list but only three votes, one for "Other". |
Posted By: AFlowerKingCrimson
Date Posted: October 01 2023 at 16:43
You could have (and still can). I said up to three votes which means you can vote for three different artists (just not more than three).

- Peter Gabriel (his raspy voice was the hallmark of Genesis and then of his solo albums until "Us") - Jon Anderson (Yes would not have been Yes without his compositions and above all without his angelic voice). - David Gilmour (Pure feeling, very much contrasted with Roger Waters' hardened voice). - Greg Lake (He had a tone of voice that, when he wasn't singing in pop ballad mode (Love Beach), was unsurpassed) Non-progressive (Apologies for the inclusion but I had to consider it). --------------------- - Eddie Vedder (The Pearl Jam singer's deep voice is one of the best live vocals I've seen and heard, especially in the 2000s. Spectacular) ------------- Héctor Enrique |
