Aghhh Phil Lynott what a singer , what a guy .


It’s such a shame that we’ve lost soooooo many great people and so young .. I’d have loved to see them nowadays and hear their stories .

I’ve been watching the Sky Arts series where the guy from AC/DC interviews old rock legends and it’s wonderful hearing all their stories

Re: your top 10 rock singers of all time

Ahhhh Agnetha ..... she sang !!!

I just recall her being stunningly beautiful ...

Yes, she really was beautiful, & still is.
Her voice was amazing solo, but the harmonies produced together with Frida were heavenly.

Re: your top 10 rock singers of all time

Freddie Mercury, of course.
Billy MacKenzie (the Associates) was really good.
Also, Agnetha Faltskog (Abba) has a pretty great voice.

Surprised David Draiman of Disturbed didn't get many mentions.
His singing here is phenominal:

Re: your top 10 rock singers of all time

In their primes;

1 Ronnie James Dio
2 Steve Perry
3 Phil Mogg
4 Bruce Dickinson (never great live, but excellent when controlled in the studio environment)
5 Phil Lynott (opposite of Dickinson - you can't tell the difference between studio and live performances)
6 Robin McCauley (Grand Prix, Micky Schenker, Far Corporation - probably my most obscure suggestion)
7 Paul Stanley
8 Geddy Lee
9 Freddy Mercury
10 Paul Rogers

Honourable mention for Bono though it pains me to admit it because I loathe his band. On the first three or four albums, though, he was exceptional.

Numbers 2-10 could probably appear in any order depending on my mood. Ronnie's always #1, though.

Hah someone else who's heard of Grand Prix. What an underrated band. Yet another band lost in 80's drivel.

Micky Schenker ?! What ? He's better known as Michael Schenker.

Phil Mogg was an odd choice. Sung off key and got away with it.

Surprised no-one's mentioned :

Jorn Lande
Russell Allen
Eric Martin
Tony Martin

Re: your top 10 rock singers of all time

Got to add Suzi Quatro, Chrissie Hynde and Wanda Jackson to that list. There were some great women rock singers
