i'M SHOCKED AT THE LACK OF VOTES FOR THE KING. ELVIS. MAYBE IF YOU PICK UP A FEW CDS OF HIS MUSIC FROM 57-70. YOU'LL AGREE HE WAS ONE OF A KIND. HE WASN'T THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PERSON IN MUSIC HISTORY FOR NOTHING. BUT EACH TO HIS OWN.
Neil Sedaka LOL. But seriously, his falsetto recording of "Laughter in the Rain" ranks it among the best of the '70's (even if the song is kinda sappy).
A bunch of excellent choices by everyone.
If I had to make a case for Sinatra as #1, it would be that his recording career was amazingly consistent and durable, making records and performing live practically non-stop for 30+ years. Even though his vast catalog contains remakes and different renditions of songs he'd sung for years, he had recorded an incredibly large amount of songs, many of them American pop classics.
Here are some more amazing voices:
Hank Williams Sr.
Aaron Neville
Louis Armstrong
Johnny Cash
Freddie Mercury
Phil Collins (just kidding)

Johnny Cash.I don't own but one cut of his music (Rusty Cage,check it out sometime) but its not for nothin' his family members used to refer to his voice as "The Gift."
all of the above but 1st one that came to my mind was frank surprised no one metioned James Taylor:shrug:
