TOP TEN MELODIC ROCK VOCALISTS
Date: August 21, 2000 12:52AM
1. JACK BLADES - Night Ranger. Silkiness, balls, experience - everything you need in a rock vocalist.
2. CHRIS OUSEY - Heartland. This guy should be huge and if you haven't heard him do yourself a favour and check him out. Great range, intensity and a great guitarist to feed off.
3. ROBERT PLANT - Led Zep. What a friggin bellow!
4. BRUCE DICKINSON - Iron Maiden - the "air raid siren". I respect Halford of Judas Priest fame but I prefer the air raid wail!
5. JANI LANE - Warrant. People who hate Warrant usually haven't heard them properly. Jani's a great songwriter too.
6. IAN GILLAN - Great frontman seen him twice.
7. RONNIE JAMES DIO - How can a small man emit such vocal energy and he hasn't lost it with age.
8. PAUL LAINE - solo artist/Danger Danger. Sometimes sweet as honey, at other times totally bitchin'.
9. ANDI DERIS - Helloween. Not the range of Kiske but I love the ballsiness!
10. JOE ELLIOT - Def Lep. Great crowd pleasing performer.
What do you guys think! Cheers. KAOS FAN!...
