There is an interesting current discussion about the best female vocalists on CD. I have my own ideas about the best male singers (any category) of the 20th Century, but would like to hear other opinions.
I agree with Lbietz2001 about Josh Groban. His voice is nearly unbelieveable, especially for someone so young (20, maybe 21 now)...but he's a figure from the 21st Century. My nominees from the 20th Century would include Jose Cura and Carlo Bergonzi for opera; Dean Martin, Harry Connick, Perry Como for pop: Lionel Ritchie and Smokey Robinson for soft rock.
Smoky Robinson: "Tracks Of My Tears", and " My Girl Has Gone". Marvin gay. Eric Clapton: "Sunshine of Your Love", and Others. Alot of older artists: Roy Orbison, etc. Newer ones to me are the singers from Aerosmith, and Metallica.
