Another Shout for Bowie here.
Other suggestions would be Dave Crosby, Stephen Stils, Graham Nash or Richie Furay
and a sentimental one for Stevie Nicks..

Bowie,Gilmour,Daltrey,Jagger,plus a few others that probably wouldn't be considered rock.

If it was just lead vocalist you could add Thom Yorke,Ali Campbell,Michael Stipe,Jaz Coleman,Terry Hall,John Lydon,Bernard Summers etc.
Joe Strummer and perhaps Paul Weller could be added to original list.

Thom Yorke… RULES!
He could rock back in the day, and has continued to evolve and be innovative (albeit not to everyone's taste).

Based on talent I would say Dave Grohl, he plays everything exceptionally well, writes and sings. The whole package.
But for living the lifestyle it has to be Ian Fraser "Lemmy" Kilmister. Hawkwind + Motorhead, the man is a legend.
Not even Ozzie Osbourne could keep up with him.

Just watching David Gilmour live in Gdansk - makes your ears bleed.
Would be difficult to pick my absolute favourite as it changes with my moods and their choice of songs.
Just happy to have seen all my favourites live at various times during my lifetime. Some great memories and some of the best times ever!

Is he STILL as good as ever?Ave a banana wrote:Has to be 'The Boss' Bruce Springsteen for me, saw him at the RDS Dublin 3 years ago .......OUTSTANDING!
Also my nomination for the best live performance l've ever witnessed, even though it's close to 30 years ago now.
Around that time I saw several other 'names" but no one else came close to creating the atmosphere that Springsteen could.

Also Jack White. Even Jaz Coleman if he fits the genre.
