Posted August 11, 200618 yr There have been thousands of bands over the last 40 or so years,but which frontman was the best(not necessary the best band). was it Freddie Mercury of Queen :huh: or Robert Plant from Led Zepelin :) Joe Strummer of the Clash B) who were the best frontmen? Edited August 11, 200618 yr by brian91
August 11, 200618 yr dont like him, but yes, freddie mercury was the epitome of a good frontman. he had unique style, charisma, what else would you need...
August 12, 200618 yr I detest Queen with every fibre of my being, but I will concede that Freddie was a great showman. Johnny Rotten Sioxusie Sioux Deborah Harry Iggy Pop Morrissey Nick Cave Jim Morrison
August 12, 200618 yr I'm not a big fan of Freddie & the boys, but I have to agree that he was probably the best frontman since the 1960s. Here is my Top10. 1. Freddie Mercury (Queen) 2. Morrissey (The Smiths) 3. Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) 4. John Lydon (Sex Pistols/P.I.L.) 5. Mick Jagger (Rolling Stones) 6. Liam Gallagher (Oasis) 7. Noddy Holder (Slade) 8. Jim Morrison (The Doors) 9. Debbie Harry (Blondie) 10. Michael Hutchence (INXS) As this list is bands I have excluded the likes of Bowie, Prince, Iggy Pop & a certain R.Williams.
August 12, 200618 yr dont know. however think a shout should be given to arthur brown for setting his head on fire, and that man from the 70s who wore a plantpot on his head
