Best frontman in rock history?

I feel like a lead guitarist who is also the ONLY lead singer in his group qualifies. This would include Neil Young with Crazy Horse, Jimi with the Experience, etc. Just my opinion that I refuse to let go of or shut up about.

John Lennon
I'm just going by what the results say when I Google "what is a frontman".

It's Mick. Period
I don't really like him or the Stones compared to his peers but he is the Nick Holt blueprint

It’s definitely Mick. I just wrote in Dave Grohl because he’s a hell of a showman. And he says fuck a lot
I’d throw Steve Perry out there as a name - definitely the strongest vocalist - though Journey is legitimately Neil Schon’s band.

David Lee Roth
Note: The Nick Holt Blueprint didn't actually work

Steve Perry is more of an iconic sound rather than a showman

Mick Jagger
Voted Mick - wanted to vote for Bon. I can deal with that.

Glad you're still alive

David Lee Roth
I think it is Roth for these reasons
He was one of the better looking guys listed. He could talk to the crowd or in an interview with say Larry King. He sold the band like nobody else. Without Roth, the VH brothers would still be doing Black Sabbath covers He could move and do acrobatics like jumping off drum risers. He really engaged the crowd and hammed it up big time so the crowd was loving it. He made sure to acknowledge what a meal ticket EVH was. He had an ego and backed it up.
