My 6 year old daughter posed this question. I thought it was great. She also said that she knew her favorites were not the best. Here are my choices, which are not necessarily my favorites:
No particular order:
Robert Plant Freddie Mercury Axl Rose Janis Joplin Paul Rodgers
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 ?
Macdadtexas 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.
