Here is a question. What constitutes a "Great Frontman"?
There are names here that could play guitar and sing but when it comes to working the crowd some of these guys just don't cut it.
Stevie Ray was great as a player but the greatest front man?
I like KISS, great show but they are all gimics.
Bonn Scott was a wild one, he's there.
Hendrix? legendary guitarist but great front man?
Jim Morrison. If you are into the zombie look I guess.
Have never seen the Stones but I would give Mic the nod.
Alice Cooper is in. Oh yeah!
J. Hetfield is good but with out his long hair it's just not the same.
OZZY in due to him being OZZY.
DLR...Come on! Maybe pre 1980
I am not ragging your pics, it's just that some of these are a head scratcher. Have you actually seen these guys perform, either live or on DVD?
To me the front man is the show. Guitars, drums and keyboards are great additions but still need the front man to bring the show alive. I am not saying a great guitar player or drummer cant get you going(Angus Young, Keith Moon) but most just stand/sit there. Oh yeah dont forget Tommy Lee upside down.
Just my 2 cents guys.
This actually needs to be different catagories due to different styles.
But all in all ther should be able to sing.(This is where DL Roth gets dropped)
Has anybody mentioned Rob Halford? You now the gay guy from Judas Priest.(not that theres anything wrong with that)8)
His voice is one of the best.
Sorry for the rant DRENO. Carry on. :cheers:
