Best vocalist of all time.

i dunno. dylan's voice is good for his songs. they work with his voice; it's distinct and defining of him, IMO. I think his voice is great for his more blues-type songs, like on Blood on the Tracks. it gives the songs a better feel to them. this all IMO, of course. you can not like his voice, to each his own.
 
I love dylans voice, although it is one of the crappiest voices in music's histroy. Bob dylan would not be Bob Dylan without that classic voice. Although his voice does not sound good at all nowadays, I was bummed when I saw him last summer, it was all rhaspy and he murables bad live.
 
This will be sacralige for most here, but I feel the same way about the beatles, wrote good songs, but it seems everyone else covers their songs much better.

Aerosmith - Come together
Owsley - Band on the run
Joe ****er - With a little help from my frienRAB

Way better than the beatles did it.
 
In no particular order whatsoever

Robert Plant
Freddie Mercury
Jeff Buckley

. . . but that's just five (three sir!) right of the top of my head, and there have been - are - so many beautiful voices in the world: and that's not even mentioning any of the femmes . . . might just be idle stirring if I brought Kate bush or Janis Joplin's names up here, eh?

Oh . . . & definitely any Tuvan kh
 
Are you kidding me? I know its just a matter of opinion but all 3 of those covers don't come close. Do you know how much easier it is to cover a song, than to actually come up with the whole song and lyrics from scratch. It is rare I hear a cover and like it better than the original, SRV-little wing is one of those rare occasions for me...
