Wayoutgirl Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Would normally choose Levi Stubbs evey time but David Ruffin singing "Walk away from Love " is awesome
Guest Dirk Tiggler Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Must admit Jackie Wilson's a hard act to follow. There's some great voices besides him, many who recorded on Motown but yeah, stick with Jackie.
Mark Bicknell Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 If we are talking black voice then these three take some beating.
Guest Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Jackie (no doubt about it) Wilson Agreed totally. The sheer scale of his catalogue and the musical genres he embraced put him way out ahead. Never mind his range and technical abilities which were second to none.

Guest soulalone Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 Agreed totally. The sheer scale of his catalogue and the musical genres he embraced put him way out ahead. Never mind his range and technical abilities which were second to none. Not to mention the dancing !
Guest Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 For me it must be Elvis's favourite artist Mr Roy Hamilton The depth, warmth and quality of his voice always blows me away be it a tear jerking ballad or an uptempo mover If only he hadnt died at an early age Steve
Kev Cane Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 Hi ya,ll.Had my good pal Matty Turner down today,no he is not currently care in the community,I just feed him once a week!The greatest Black voice for me,David Ruffin,for him,Levi Stubbs.When Ruffin sings i want to crawl into a hole and weep!your thoughts,if you can be bothered! Any room in the hole Tim, Ruffins the man but a prime time Bobby Womack disputes the title, different this one, but listen to Smokey on a lot of his not so well known stuff "Baby Baby don,t cry" for example, the man is a genius, oh so soulful, Lee Jones from the Masqueraders, the late George Smith from the Manhattans, be back when I think of or play some more. Keep in touch mate Kev
Koolkat Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 Levi Stubbs for me also. But I also like Tony Hestor.
Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 fa hard choice of 2 Sam Cooke or Otis Redding if on Motown then Levi Stubbs wins no contest
Guest JJMMWGDuPree Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 What's a black voice? Coming from a time when less than half the households in GB had a telly (And our house was in the majority) I never really thought about the colour of the artists, but upon finding out I do recall being a little surprised to find out that Chuck Berry and Nat King Cole weren't white and Elivs Presley and Bill Medley weren't black, and if I hadn't known before I'd even heard him that Jones the Voice was Welsh I suspect I'd have had him as black as well. So I guess I'm asking are you really looking for 'black voices' or just black singers whatever they actually sound like? The answer's still going to be Little Richard, but I'm curious...
Reg Scott Posted September 27, 2009 Posted September 27, 2009 This a today question. And today it's????? ** Darrow Fletcher ** Tomorrow who knows, just so many to choose from.
Hammersoul Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 For me Chuck Jackson,he could sing pinky perky songs and make em sound soulful Randy Brown is another one of me favs
Ronjon Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 Hi ya,ll.Had my good pal Matty Turner down today,no he is not currently care in the community,I just feed him once a week!The greatest Black voice for me,David Ruffin,for him,Levi Stubbs.When Ruffin sings i want to crawl into a hole and weep!your thoughts,if you can be bothered! I think Eddie Levert is hard to beat especially in the 70's.
