Drowned in Sound - Community - Music forum

PJ harvey, Dylan (agreed circa 65/66), Aidan Moffat, and sorry got to say Morrissey (back in the day, nowadays not such a fan, but maybe thats the songs, but I remember first discovering The Smiths when i was about 11 and couldn't get enough of his voice)... and Stephen Malkmus.

Oh and Leonard Cohen before it went REAL DEEP (circa Famous Blue Raincoat).

I go with many on this list

but that Ana-something Skunk person is pretty amazing and Michael Gira when he sings "Failure" has never been topped for sheer baritone stark brilliance in my book.

To get outside the rock/soul canon a wee bit

Juldeh Camara has risen up my personal charts after his performance at Glasto. Saw Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan once. Un-fuckin' believable.

How rough do you like it???

Rough? Otis. Little range, but the intensity of 'I've Been Loving Loving You Too Long' at Monterrey...its like nothing else. Nothing, else.
RRRRROUGH??? A Janis Joplin, 'Work Me Lord' is so good it pisses me off he might not exist, well annoying.
MMMMMEEEEUUUUUGGGGRRRHHHROUGH?!?!? Kurt, he screams, in tune and that stare at the end of 'Where did you sleep...' Ashcroft? Just for History?
