Which voices really hit you?
Alan King Pin - just pure sufferation on this one.
Can’t get enough of Rick Poppa Howard’s voice.

Obvious but undeniable choice.
Teddy and Harold for the classic Philly sounds
Byron S was the original sound of vocal HOUSE music for me.
Obvious one I know.
He has this ‘catch’ in his voice where he sounds like he’s on the verge of choking, it’s a powerful weapon.
If I’m in an indie mood it’s early Richard Ashcroft
Got to be Robert Owens, Tears seminal track still for me, Kenny Bobien close second. ‘Father’ is a killer still. When he was on it can’t beat Dennis Emanuel Brown, remember a doc watched in 90’s with him singing ‘Have you ever…’ was emotional.

The almighty Cedric Myton
Amazing how many reggae singers have such pure voices considering the amount of ganja going around. By rights they should all sound like Tom Waits.
God, how can I have forgotten Barrington! No-one sings the word LOOOOOOVEEEE better.
Discovered this a few years ago… I try to emulate when on my own, its not a nice sound. Pat nails it.
The Chairman of the Board too… Sort of grew up with my parent’s playing him and watching too many Mob films etc.
Teddy was the lead singer in Harold Melvin & The Blue Notes during the 70s until his first solo album in 77. He sings the lead on Wake Up Everybody.
