for me, Peter Gabriel
Of this list, Peter Gabriel. Probably the most imitated Prog singer during his career with Genesis. There are certain singers that come around once in a while, so unique and creative, with a very distinctive style and voice. Gabriel is one of them. And he carried that voice to great solo success after he left Genesis.
Jon Anderson is another great voice, perfect for Yes' symphonic grandeur. But overall I have to go with Gabriel.

Although I like both Jon Anderson and Peter Gabriel a lot, I have to go for Peter Hammill.

IMO his ability to express vocally such a wide range of different emotions is unsurpassed.
I'm running still,
I shall until,
one day I hope that I'll arrive

Although Yes is my favourite band, Jon Anderson is not one of my favourite singers. For me, it's between the two Peters.
 
I like them both a lot, but although I think Peter Hammill has a better voice, Peter Gabriel had more variety in using his voice. I choose Gabriel.

Gabriel is probably the most technically proficient out of these, but I prefer Hammill. I really like all three though.

Out of these three, Gabriel without any doubt. I'm having difficulty in liking peter hammils voice (I'm trying to learn to like VDGG, appreciate their musical uniqueness, and after listening to Killer for 10 times, I actually started to like it. So there is still hope for meApprove)
And although I like Jon Anderson's singing often, he also often gets on my nerves.

BTW, as the word implies, a "duel" is a battle between TWO combatants, not three. Geek

I have to go for Gabriel. Jon is good, but sometimes he seems to overpower the music than he does compliment it.


Or he just gets in the way and sounds bad *cough, cough*Tales From Topographic Oceans *cough, cough*.
