Top 5 Rock n Roll Vocalists

Garn509: I thought rock was the white man's take on blues? Hard to include Robert Plant and Mick Jagger without acknowledging their source. Harder still, not to include Solomon Burke and Sam Cooke as the essence of the roots.

bongofury- the distinction remains even if source is known. Cooke, Burke,and Redding are widely regarded as Soul or R&B performers. Who would call them rock n roll singers ?

Otis, my man!!

You can't keep those guys out, they are the beggining of Rock and Roll. What about Marvin Gaye?

Good call Bongo.

Ian Gillan

Yes I can, watch me !! All y'all are violating rules of logic.
Can we include the wolf into a list of favorite dog types because the wolf is a canine and a root species of the dog?
If it's ok to say Marvin Gayer or Otis Redding are rock singers, then it is OK to say Grace Slick and Jim Morrison are soul singers. Once that free for all starts, it is meaningless to have types or classes of music.
