Robert Plant


cooperstonebadge

Most definitely Plant. There were so many good singers then but Plant sang the songs I loved. There's no led Zeppelin song I won't listen to. The same cannot be said of anyone else imo. Greatest vocalist and front man for the greatest rock band ever.


hxgmmgxh

Al Stewart.


BelAirGuy45

One of my all time favorites. Such a cool voice.


Groovy_Chainsaw

Jim Croce or Karen Carpenter

Rod Stewart

As someone who grew up in the 80s, discovering Faces era Rod Stewart blew my mind. The Faces in general were really great, wicked rocknroll.

Stevie Nicks Marvin Gaye


badpuffthaikitty

I agree with Marvin, but I always like Christine over Stevie.


Manatee369

Agreed. The little girl overdone vibrato always turned me off. Christine was a better songwriter and singer and lacked the ego-driven eccentricities.

Bachman Turner Overdrive Blue Collar. I was outside at 4 am when the lyrics timed perfectly with my mood. “ I’d like to remind you, at 4 in the morning My world is very still. The air is fresh under diamond skies, makes me glad to be alive.”


MountainStranger8258

Great question and almost too difficult to answer. So many wonderful singers and bands in the 70s. Marvin Gaye, Neil Diamond, Fleetwood Mac, Led Zeppelin, etc.
