The Journey replacement singer was Steve Perry squared, and that go annoying. The replacement for Lou Graham made Foreigner better to listen to, but seeing Lou solo was cool too. He even changed a lyric to make it easier to hit the note. It seemed to me the great singers from classic bands start taking shortcuts, like the last few times we saw Paul Rodgers. We've seen REO plenty of times over the past 20 years, but I thought Kevin Cronin's voice got worse each time, so we finally stopped going. The last several times we saw Styx, Lawrence Gowan was doing the Dennis DeYoung vocal parts quite well. You could tell he had lost some of his range, and it was a little rougher.

But apparently Shaw learned how to do a *really good* DeYoung impersonation, because it was damn hard to tell the difference. Regarding Styx, what lead singer are you referring to? Dennis DeYoung, who sang all their well-known material, hasn't sung with the band since 1999. And all 3 of those guys sing at the higher-end of the scale, which is usually the range that fades with age.

They all still had their full range, from what I could tell. I was amazed that the lead singers in each band have apparently preserved their voices perfectly. Speaking of, last weekend I saw a show with Loverboy/Styx/REO Speedwagon. And from what I can tell, the decline didn't really start until about 10 years ago. Honestly, the fact that he's kept about, oh, 80% of his voice at his age is a miracle. He is a great frontman, which is far more important in rock/pop music.Ĭorn_Fed: realmolo: HIs voice isn't what it once was. Daltrey, IMO, is a good singer but not great. I'm the only instrumentalist in a family of really good singers (my dad and sister sang backup vocals on a Grammy-winning album), so though I'm not a great singer myself, I am fully aware of what a great singer is. I've never claimed to be a vocalist, FWIW. That's a band I've heard of, but never heard (at least not that I'm aware of), so I headed over to Youtube to have a listen to one of their songs, 'Do You Realize?' I'll be the first to admit that personal tastes vary, but a not-great singer talking about how great Roger Daltrey is - well, not a particularly convincing argument. Not so great a singer.įor all of you armchair vocalists, according to the Flaming Lips' Wayne Coyne, 'You don't realize how great a singer Roger Daltrey is until you try to do it yourself.' I would not necessarily call him a 'good' singer. Karnal: Wave Of Anal Fury: DanInKansas: Roger Daltrey is a compelling singer.
