leftybassman392 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) A thread that celebrates the talent of people who can actually sing. I don't need to like the style they sing in or the topic they're singing about. I just want to enjoy listening to people who can sing without the need for studio tricks. Using studio technology to enhance a good voice is not the same as making a silk purse from a sow's ear. If you don't like the singers being posted, then instead of b*tching about it why not post your own idea of a good singer? To get us started, here's someone whose singing I've always enjoyed (even though her music often seems to provoke widely varying reactions): Over to you...

Lozz196 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Lady Ga-Ga, without posting any of her music (as I’m not particularly keen on it) she is one hell of a singer. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 IMO, the finest female voice ever to have graced the planet. Absolutely peerless and such a sad demise. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beedster Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Whilst he's got a great voice, I hate listening to Van Morrison talk. Sadly, hearing his views on things has made his voice less attractive of late 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftybassman392 Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 Another one from me. Two for one actually. Both outstanding singers in their own right, and Krauss in particular is IMHO one of the best harmony singers in the business. The music won't be to many peoples' taste, but that's not what this thread is about: 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that will do me - said person is the most chilled “get on with everyone” kind of guy too. Interestingly said similar of John whatsisface of ‘Yes’. Said ZZ Top were ace though. Particularly Dusty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everything I’ve ever heard about VM supports that. I’ve met Jon Anderson a couple of times though -although have certainly never worked with him! - and he seemed ok to me.
