Its got to be Chico Esquela. I have not seen nor heard him in along time, but his first release on the SNL label "Opera Been Vely, Vely Good To Me!" is an all time classic.
Mirella Freni. Listen to Verdi's Simon Boccanegra on DG, the classic Abbado recording from 1977 - it's about the finest moment on record imho. Available on midprice CD (DG 449 752-2) or a 3LP box set (DG 2740-169)
