JEFF'S TOP FIVE VOICES

Tuesday, January 22, 2008

In no particular order:

1. Leonard Cohen
2. Gram Parsons
3. Neil Young
4. Emmylou Harris
5. Levon Helm

Jeff also has a list of honorable mentions which is totally cheating but I'll list them anyway.

Honorable Mentions: Hope Sandoval, Paul Westerberg, Dean Wareham and Dusty Springfield.

I am not at all okay with Dusty Springfield's voice being beaten by Neil Young's voice. Really? That's just wrong.

I have to agree with you there, Lisa. We can only assume that Jeff's voice rating scale awards many points for character and not so many for technical skill/beauty. But, then Emmylou throws that whole theory out the window. New theory - Jeff's on crack.

Neil Young has some songs that make me want to cry.....Dusty always make me smile, no matter what she is singing. Its harder to make me cry than smile.
And I'm on the crack.
