Favorite Lead Singer / Lead Guitarist

[Sam Vs. Dave]

Jedi McFly playing some Hendrix made me think about guys who sang lead vocals AND played lead guitar. Hendrix, Billy Gibbons, Ted Nugent sometimes, Tommy Shaw sometimes, the guy from Muse.

There must be more. Who's your favorite?

Lately mine has been Dave Meniketti from Y&T. Awesome voice and shreds pretty great, too!

Bingo bango bongo. By country miles.



Other frontman guitarists among my faves:

Billy Joe Armstrong
Steve Miller
Chuck Berry
Tommy Shaw

I know, I know, I should like David Gilmour and Neil Young. But I don't.

[Jedi McFly]

Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Mayer, Prince, Ian Thornley and Brad Paisley all come to mind.

Peter Frampton had his moments.

Was just listening to some Steve Miller last weekend. His voice with his guitar are a gift.

Peter Frampton had his moments.

Yes! But I lose the side bet. I had you pegged for Bob Mould.

so i'm guessing guys like Ocasek and Petty don't count because they weren't the lead guitarist

you know I can't pick one, but some of my faves are Billy Gibbons, David Gilmour, George Harrison, Lindsey Buckingham; Frampton, Walsh and Nugent gotta get a nod...

Mark Knopfler?

Damn, those are both greats examples. And I saw them at a double bill a year or two ago. Great show.

[JUNGLE DRUMMER]

Hendrix, Knopfler, and Gibbons come to my mind first.

He doesnt always sing lead, but Jerry Cantrell has a terrific voice, too.

[Jedi McFly]

Richie Kotzen.

[ArtyBoy]

Steve Marriott.
