Peter Hammill, though I love Brown as well. Hammill is the whole package; singer, songwriter and musician. |
I believe the two are the focus of this poll as singers.

Dayvenkirq, Hammill still wins as a singer as IMO he has the best vocal range of the two.

Can't stand Hammill, so the guy with the top of his head on fire.

Interesting comparison artists.....I like VDGG but most of the time can't stand Hammill's vocals.
I do like Arthur Brown's voice quality and some of his work but overall Hammill has written better songs over the years.

Yeah, it's weird that there are two different questions for one poll question (which I should have read in full).

I chose both. I'm far more familiar with PH (*far* more) and Hammill is my fave singer, but AB is very good too. And AB was such a huge influence on Hammill and the early VdGG that it's likely VdGG would have been a different act than they turned out to be without them seeing AB live in concert early on.
Some VdGG detractors may now feel compelled to blame AB ;-)
