How could I have forgotten Brad Delp and Phil Collins

The beauty of Phil's voice is apparent on Carpert Crawlers. When he comes in with "Mild mannered supermen...", it just takes that song to another level. And Brad Delp...just, wow. The intro vocals on Something About You...

Myles Kennedy (Slash, with Myles Kennedy and the Conspirators)

 

Just tidied that up for you. ;)

 

Eugh no. Myles sounds awful with Slash, everything that makes him such a modern great is ruined by Slash's obvious insistence he has a Axl-replicant every gig he plays.

 

Fans of Myles since his days in The Mayfield Four through to Alter Bridge know what suits him best. Plus, his unreleased solo album apparently has a lot of blues and soul influence, this shrill 80's hair metal thing he has going on with Slash is thankfully only one aspect of his talent.

 

Not one single song written with Slash measures up to the likes of Blackbird or Wonderful Life.

I disagree. I've never heard the The Mayfield Four stuff though. Alter Bridge is like having a hard boiled egg and plain white toast for breakfast. I like it, but there's nothing special about it.

It's all good what side of his voice/career you prefer! The dude is diverse, and I definitely think it is a compliment to his versatility that he has wide support for both major (and different) sides of his career!

 

Slash is not for me, never has been. I prefer Myles and Tremonti's work. I think they play off each other with style.

Matt Heafy from Trivium has a very distinctive tone. Love his cleans and his screams!

 

Also really adore Rihanna. Her voice can be an ugly, harsh mess (but intentionally), or hypnotic and otherworldly. Admire her a lot.
