Re: Favorite Artist by Decade?
Whew, that's really good. Think I've heard the last minute or so with just vocals in a TV show.
Not removing until John Elway is fired.

i'm gonna have to assume they're going by presence and charisma, more than anything else, in regard to janis.Jason wrote:Here's one where she's at #4, but higher than all the ones I mentioned.zombie wrote:let me see these lists? i'd have to know the criteria they're using. but there are plenty equal or better voices to janis joplin.Jason wrote:I've seen Joplin mentioned #1 more than any other female vocalist. About as often as I've seen Freddie Mercury at the top for males.

Re: Favorite Artist by Decade?
grace slick has one of the best rock voices, for sure.
Re: Favorite Artist by Decade?
Hell yes. She was a nutty ass hippie, but still a great singer. ![Tongue :P](./images/smilies/icon_tongue.gif)
Did you know she got invited to the White House back when Jefferson Airplane was big, and she planned to sneak a drop of acid into Nixon's drink but couldn't quite do it? lol.

Also, I love Janis Joplin's voice, but she's by no means a great singer. I feel like we've had this argument before though.

I've heard some Mad Season. It's okay. Missing that beautiful harmonizing with Jerry Cantrell (people often forget they were co-singers to AiC), as well as Cantrell's songwriting punch I love.

Damn i have not heard Mad Season in awhile but it could never beat out Alice for me.zombie wrote:have you given mad season a listen? i've found that i prefer that to any alice in chains album, for some reason. and it's still layne staley so yeah.

Re: Favorite Artist by Decade?
understandable, alice in chains is second tier favorite for me. it's just that i hadn't heard mad season until recently, so thought i'd share incase other people had missed it too.
