David Gilmour is the best voice in Floyd, but Roger sings well also... I mean for certain songs, Rogers voice was very appropriate.

Freddy Mercury is perhaps my alltime fav vocal...
and yeah, Roger has a good voice too, and some places a can't imagine Gilmour singing The Trail.

Ah, yes, JOE Cocker... Another of Sheffield's finest...but no relation, no matter what Mack always said... LOL

Are you kidding? I mean, pre '80s Lake had the most wonderfully smooth but powerful voice. It's now become a lot rougher, but it's still got the power.

i think Roger Waters sings great on Julia Dream, but, David Gilmour and Wright have the best voices in floyd, i think.
I just love Barrets work, and i also think he sings cool.
Wright sings good on Paintbox...

Well, I wasn't born in 1946. Does it apply to me? Where can I find more information?

Dave.

A friend of mine who is a Vietnam Veteran was telling me over a few wines how holding his wife's hand helps his nightmares go away. I said "you need to hear this song".

I played him "dimming of the day" from Dave's DVD...and the guy cried.

I'd always heard that he was born in 1944.



Btw, referring to Greg Lake, I think he's a fantastic singer.
