Yeah, I remember thinking "well, the singer holds the notes a long time, longer than Waters usually. And it's not Gilmour's syrupy tone--hmmm." I think checking the CD jacket told me the lineup, or that Floyd & Co. website. Love that place!

Curses, Covenant Jr.! You beat me to it with Maynard James Keenan. Probably the best set of pipes to come out of the rock scene in the last 15 years.
Mercury was one of a kind as well, with an equally grand voice

he was a great frontman but the pistols suffered froma lack of being able to diversify after the initial shock value. a band very much of THAT time and place.

if you listen to the Pistols album it is very good, but I agree with Tazz, the hype overwhelmed and they never got past it.

Bono from U2 as far as rock goes for me
from jazz: Frank Sinatra as far as "gods" go; Ella Fitzgerald would the "goddess"
