IMO the two stand-out female vocalists of my timer were Janice Joplin and (and I get a lot of stick for this choice from my kids and my wife) Karen Carpenter.  Of Course you cant rank the two vis a vis each other since it would be like trying to compare apples with oranges. Horses for courses as they say. So when I want good earthy, blood stirring vocals, its got to be Janice. Like this




and when I want mellow and sheer precision in delivery, well then its Karen. No other woman hit a note as precisely as Karen Carpenter in my respectful opinion. And no where is it more evident then in this song.   



As for male vocalists, this guy was the undisputed king of my time (in my respectful opinion) 

This is my personal favourite 




But i think this was his best

I'll be listening to
Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell
all day today - the "Old Yellow Moon" and "The Travelling Kind" albums



I'm off to the promotional tour concert, TONIGHT, at the Palais Theatre - in Melbourne - with third row tickets

I've been in love with Emmylou for forty years - and have never missed a tour

She couldn't be much more than 20 in that video.

In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

No evidence whatsoever it can be attributed to George Orwell or Eric Arthur Blair (in fact the same guy)
