    Mick Jagger

    Freddie had the best set of pipes, although I don't like the Queen shtick that much and fine them overrated.

    Daltrey was the most gifted athletically and was doing the curly blonde haired thing was before Plant.

    But Mick was first by a long shot. He was the first rock guy to rip off the James Brown moves and be a showman. All rock frontmen are derived from Mick.

    Although as Paul Stanley points out in the multi-disc auto of Paul Stanley, Daltry only grew it out long to do the long curly locks look after Plant arrived.

    To hear Stanley say it, EVERY front man wanted to be like Plant after he showed up. Roger was wearing the curly curls short b4 LZ.

    Cook it! It's Plant for the heavy stuff; Jagger for the lighter stuff.

    Cook it!
    What the fuck are you talking about counselor? @creepycoug here is Daltrey live in 1968 BEFORE Led Zeppelin had even released a record. Daltrey was first.

    Stay in your lane @creepycoug . Here’s Zep live in late 1968. Same timeframe as The Who video. Plant’s blonde locks are no longer than Daltrey’s. The longer hair came later.

    Stanley says it came on Plant b4 Daltry.

    I'm going with the Star Child pendejito. It takes more than a record collection to out-duel the front man of KISS. Sorry. Not sorry.

    Everybody wanted to be Plant when Zep got it going bra'. Take your Who and their child-porn lead guitarist and LEAVE! this discussion.
    Kiss sucks. They are not a group for serious rock.

    Why do you hate Led Zeppelin so much? It’s odd and off-putting.
    Ask @PurpleBaze about the quality of my Led Zeppelin collection.

    Go back to Biscayne Bay where Donald Fagen said the Cuban gentleman sleep all day.

    My mom had Led Zepellin II and IV albums in our house when I was 8. 8 Yella. You weren't even a boner in your daddy's pants when I had the words to Whole Lotta Love and Livin Lovin Maid DOWN PAT! I was jumping around the house like an idiot with a tennis racket guitar playin' Been a Long Time Since I Rock & Rolled when your Daddy was makin' it with cheerleaders.

    Step off junior. Time is not on your side. What you've read about? I've lived in real life. I was there!

    Plant > Daltry. I didn't want to be hard about it, but you pushed you me too hard, and so I've had to declare yet another war.

    to me it has to be Jagger because of his endurance and how many generations he's been able to overlap.

    Jim Morrison is my favorite but I get that a lot of people don't find the (warrior) poet angle very appealing; I happen to like his storytelling shtick, though.

    The others on the pole list are amazing and most have at least one thing better than Jagger (voice, for example), but man, Mick Jagger has just been able to get relevant to so many different generations in so many ways despite his face...purely impressive.

    He's also entirely like nobody else. Nobody before him, and nobody after. There is almost a comedy to Jagger that no other front man has. He's just one of a fucking kind. He reminds me of nobody, and nobody reminds me of him.

    Fuck-off, the obvious choice is
    Can we do a front man with guitar? Hetfield, Cobain, Hendrix, Grohl, and Kilmister to name but a few of the heavyweights.

    Good effort, Creep. But this is like Kane Hall and you can’t win. LZ don’t write songs about swarthy, cigar rollers.

    On I sweep with threshing oar!!

    The fact nobody mentioned Layne Staley in this thread speaks volumes about the generic, shitty taste of this board. I'm not even sure I want to post here anymore.
