100 Greatest Singers of All Time

Everyone has their own definitions of "greatness", but I think it can best be illustrated in the look on Mama Cass's face as she's watching Janis Joplin sing Ball and Chain at the Monterey film festival in 1967. You take one look at her and you know, she is looking at something truly great.

Janis Joplin sang like a cat being tortured!

You should be negged into submission for that. No she didn't have an especially pleasing voice, but the lady could SING!

Who else receives such honors?

Apropos of nothing, my daughter and I used to call this the VD song. It's obvious, isn't it? She's got this burning sensation deep inside her, and it hurts so bad.

you do realize what that seems like your saying right? .....:lol:
I'm just fuckin' with ya!

BTW, all my friends think I'm nuts about Queen. They all say, "They're a monster rock band", "They're up there with everyone else", "Brian May made his own guitar from a Charvelle!", whatever the fuck that means!

The only thing I can play is the radio.

well Brian is a pretty influential guitar player.....me i like the more hard rock players....give me Gary Moore,Johnny Winter the Dual guitar bands like Lizzy,Priest and Maiden....
 
I don't know if it's just her voice, or one monster fuckin' song, but this is a powerful tune!

Dwayne and Dicky?
