Restraint... now there's a word for ya! 

So Reed, if you're feeling those inane rants coming on in the autumn, just play this, it will soothe your soul...

I just want to state for the record that I neither endorse nor approve of any products shown in hyperlinks which may mysteriously appear in one of my posts after I hit the "Post Reply" button.

On the other hand, since the site can benefit from sponsorship, click away!

Was that another track from the Pat Boone album?

Add Greg Lake and Ian Gillian and I think that would be my favorite singers ever list.  Yeah, and to whoever made the poll how can you leave Steve Walsh off and put Geddy Lee and Neal Morse on?  Steve Walsh is one of the best singers in not just prog rock but in rock and roll ever.  The guy has it all highs and lows and power.

hmmmm.....Back to priviledged voices however.....

I'm a little disappointed in all you Floyd fans who haven't voted for David.  Next to Greg.. I guess I appreciated his voice more than others.  Maybe cause I preferred not to hear Roger scream.. .I mean sing...

My other favorite singing voice isn't in prog... I always loved to hear Paul Rodgers sing.  I wasn't really a fan of Bad Company... but I did like his time with Free.. and then The Firm.  But he does sing with a lot of expression.

Also what about Justin Hayward?

Sorry, threefates- Paul Rodgers is ok to listen to (decent blues-rock voice, I admit) but every time I see him I feel an unreasoning animosity...maybe he's really the nicest guy in the world but he LOOKS like a total ba***rd. KILL KILL KILL ARGHH

*whew* I think my head just spun completely around. Anyone got any Holy Water handy?

Regarding Paul Rodgers... I've actually met him a few times and he is quite a nice fellow.  He's a bit flakey.. but thats probably just the fact that he's basically a loner personality in a position where he's always surrounded by people.  (He tends to disappear a lot and not tell anyone where he's going).. which isn't all that bad until he's about an hour late for soundcheck...
