"James Brown. " Good shout - important to look beyond rock. The lead singer of Songhoy Blues is incredible too. Oh, and Ty Taylor from Vintage Trouble. | |||

"If you're including solo artists then I think any list would have to include the likes of Al Jolson and Liberace, unless your list is exclusively from the past forty years. Yes Freddy is definitely up there but Jolson was absolutely huge in his day and Liberace was by all accounts a brilliant showman. They may not be particularly relevant today but you can't have a greatest of all time list and exclude people like them just because they were before your (and my) time." Absolutely; Liberace was amazing. Both an incredible frontman and an amazing pianist | |||

"A simple question (or is it?)...... Who in your opinion is/was the greatest musical frontperson ever? (I’ll allow you to list a few as I’m so generous and narrowing it down to a single individual may well prove tricky!) They could be a solo artist or else front a band. Remember, I’m not necessarily asking for your opinion on the greatest vocalist ever, rather those individuals whose effortless charisma can electrify a stage and inthrall an audience. You get my gist right? Over to you folks " Lol OP it is not a simple question at all! Frank Sinatra Elvis Presley Freddie Mercury Prince Bruce Dickinson David Bowie Janis Joplin Tina Turner Aretha Franklin I know I know... Ladies aren't from the bands but its worthwhile to mention them. They are great voices and had stunning shows | |||

Absolutely; Liberace was amazing. Both an incredible frontman and an amazing pianist " I watch clips of him playing his signature boogie woogie when I need cheering up. He was a diva, they don't make them like him any more. Al Jolson.... Oh the times I've had to sit through The Rose of Washington Square or Jolson Sings Again. My mum's dad used to sing his songs and do little dance routines. Man was a legend. | |||

"Phil Lynott - utter sex on legs Fee Waybill - utter brilliance with The Tubes Ian Drury - mesmeric Lee Brilleaux - pure menace and genius From another era entirely - Solomon Burke And of course, the Boss tops the list..." Lee Brilleaux is a great choice. Put heart and soul into every performance, you are absolutely right about the menace, and him combined with Wilko were definitely two people you'd not want to bump into at night down a dark Southend alleyway. | |||
