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.
ROBIN ZANDER! I can not believe in this entire thread he was not mentioned. My favorite anyway. Sings ballads, rock, country, screams, hums. The man with a thousand voices. Awesome!
Years ago Pavarotti stated that Frank Sinatra was the greatest singer of the 20th Century. I concur with other's on this thread that he was the greatest. His voice during the 1940's when he was with Capitol was his best singing ever until 1951 when he severely tore his vocal cord's in a singing accident which caused permanent damage where he could no longer reach the upper octaves but still had a commanding powerful voice. He truely was the Chairman of the Board.
