Hands down, Robert Plant. He set the precedent for all front men IMHO.

-Eddie Vedder - What an awesome show
-Phil Anselmo - One of the best voices and ranges in -rock/metal
-Tom Araya - one word, SLAYER
-Axl Rose - Like him or not you can't deny he knows how to put on a show
-Chris Cornell - Amazing live performer and I was lucky enough to see him and Vedder do song from the Temple of the Dog album together an experience I will never forget.
-Ozzy Osbourne - He's the F@#King Prince of Darkness
-Robert Plant - How can Plant not be in the top 10 or all time?
-Freddy Murcury - Just watch Live Aid and see how well Queen performed. They only had 20 minutes i think to do their thing and they blew all the other bands away.
-Jim Morrison - The Lizard King, He can do anything!
-Paul Stanley/Gene Simmons - When you are 9 years old and see the original Kiss in make-up with Ace and peter you know why i put these guy in my top 10.

----Honorable mention would go to Layne Staley of Alice in Chains.

...In no particular order would be my top 10 well 11 if you count Layne.

Graham is awesome. One of my favorite recordings of his is an EP: Anthem -- Gypsy Ways. He has worked with some of the best metal guitarists of all time. Yngwie, Blackmore, Vai, Impellitteri, etc.

Some great ones mentioned already, but two of my favorites are
Perry Ferrell (Jane's Addiction, ****o for Pyros)
Mike Patton (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk)
Anthony Kiedis (Red Hot Chili Peppers)

And you can't have a more colorful front man than George Clinton :cool2:
