    For sure…We were lucky enough to see Tom Petty in Seattle only a few rows from the stage.

    Ha! Paul Simon, a big no from me. I heard him sing Bridge Over Troubled Waters and it was so inferior to Art's many renditions. Art is a big yes from me. Remember it's about their voice not songwriting.

    I agree! Art had a fantastic voice - Paul is just okay.

    Paul shines in his harmonies with Art. Same as the Everly brothers. Alone they are okay.

    Good choices. I like Rush, but was a little surprised by Geddy's inclusion. I've never heard anyone call him their favorite vocalist. Bassist, sure.

    I've met Robert Plant several times. Great frontman and super nice guy.

    You met Robert Plant, you are so damn lucky!!! I'm a younger (20's, not a kid) classic rock lover. So I missed out on a lot that others are fortunate to have experienced.
    I was also surprised that I didn't see anyone else mention Geddy as their favorite vocalist. I like his vocals the most tied with Robert Plant. Actually, Geddy's voice grew on me. I used to not like Rush much at all. Which would surprise a lot of people I know in my real life, because they are now my favorite band. Tied with Led Zeppelin of course!!
