Nik's a lovely bloke, he lives not a million miles from here and my ex was in a band with him for a while. Dave's always been lovely too when I've met him - nothing like the villain he's been painted as. It's just a case of the two of them not getting on.
Nice this type of historic documents. Sounds interesting too! Thanks!
I lost touch with "popular music" around 20 years ago. I still listen to music every day in addition to making it, but I only recognised 1 out of 25 songs in the list. Yes, it was Adele. But I'm comfortable with that.
Thanks for the suggestions. The songs were decent, but the voices still lacked the oomph I'm lookin for and know has to still exist in places.

I don't know if the "oomph" you're looking for is the emotion of the performance or the raspy vocals. Maybe both? Either way, it's tough to measure up to Bobby Womack. The more successful male soul singers these days often have that Michael Jackson vibe.
Agreed!
This.
Is good.
It's the emotion, singing at a level from the gut (heart) where the voice just breaks up naturally. The raspiness Is always welcome too. The more I listen to new stuff (including the vids posted above, I listened to them all so thanks guys), the more I realize
1) I just have my favorites and they're all really one-of-a-kind.
2) I'm very picky. I still love listening to any new stuff in hopes of finding something new & great, but I know what I like. There are usually only 2 or 3 albums per year that I think are worthy of multiple listens. I still buy the albums I love, and Shura was the only one released in the calendar year last year that I bought.
And yeah, the majority of male soul/pop singers these days sing too smoothly for my taste. Choirboys.
I second Vintage Trouble.
You may also want to check out St Paul and the Broken Bones.
One of my favourites:
That's great to hear.
Hey, if I were in Brock's shoes, I also would be miffed if my reedplayer showed up on roller skates and wearing a dinosaur costume.
Hawkwind is one of the greats.
Yeah I remember the 80's gigs where Nik re-appeared for a while, dressed up like an alien thing. Sometimes it worked though, Stonehenge 84 was good, what I can remember of it...
I've seen better lists. The metal entries seem to sum it up really. Church of the Misery a third rate Doom band, and Metallica proving that the world of extreme metal left them behind decades ago.
Some more goodness...
Probably a bit of a reach drawing a parallel between the two. Accuse me of wanton free association if you like, but some how thought there was a common thread of humor. Regardless, reminded me of this, and thought I'd share. Who knows, might even be a male voice for @oat_phipps to take a listen to

DAMN.
GOOD.
Interesting business, power. How it breaks upon each of us, sometimes differently. Especially in art, music.
This piece was on my headset, weirdly or ironically, whatever, when I swam outside today for the time this year, I listened to it the whole way. A voice starts off (I believe it's Gillian Anderson, who's bidialectal) reading one of the great pieces of poetry in the English language; Virginia Woolf's note left for her husband before she committed suicide. And then just Max Richter (with a little nod to Glass/The Hours in there towards the end maybe). I found it as powerful (especially underwater) as almost anything else might be.
Bugger, that seems to be blocked here, will see if I can find another one.
