| Greatest Frontman Ever? Who is everyone's favorite frontman of all time? The greatest for me starts with Freddie Mercury and then there's a considerable gap for 2nd place.  |

| | I'm Your Huckleberry | I think Axl Rose and Robert Plant have to be right in the discussion for the best.
David Lee Roth is probably still my favorite. |

You can hear the influence for Roth. I think I just came of age with 1984, Diver Down and Women and Children First.
I haven't seen that acoustic set. I'll check you tube. |

| The first two posts pretty much sum this whole argument up. The others mentioned just make my heart cry.
Basically:
1. Mercury
2. Plant
3. George Clinton
4. Morrissey
5. Cornell
