best rock voices

Dont apologise for that. I suspect most people here would not have heard of him. He's an Australian singer. In the late 70's at 16yrs he made his name in a band called cold chisel( which became one of the biggest bands in Austalian rock, period). He's now a solo artist that does more soul/rock material. He sings more agressive now than he did when he was younger. If you like that vocal style you will love this guy. I have seen one of the worlds leading throat specialists say that he would be one of only three people max that is capable of singing this way without fatigue or damage. If your interested I can get you the name of some of his better cd,s. Cold Chisel (if you like rock) is really worth having a listen to, they were truly brilliant.

Rockethouse, I just picked up "the Best of Cold Chisel" from Amazon. Looking forward to hearing it.

Tvad, Well done. These guys are great songwriters I'm sure you will enjoy it, keep me informed.

I agree that Shelby Lynne has a great voice, but isn't she considered a country, not rock, artist?

As far as female rock singers, I'd have to go with Bonnie Raitt ("rock" is a marginal classification here, too), Grace Slick, Ann Wilson, and Janis Joplin. Honorable mentionn to Joan Jett.
