Names that spring to mind when I think "great voices" are...

Danny Bowes (Thunder)

Paul Rodgers

Granted though the likes of Paul McCartney, Robert Plant, Roger Hodgson, Freddie Mercury and many more all have or can have the ability to create that "wow, what a voice" comment!
I'm sure I would change it around more if I thought about it some more but:
Jim Morrison
David Gilmour
Robert Plant
Greg Lake
Jon Anderson
Elvis Presley
Aretha Franklin
Robert Plant
Roger Daltrey
Morrissey
Ask me again tomorrow and I might shift them around.
Michael Hutchence
Noah Hunt (Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band)
Jim Morrison
Robert Plant
Brent Smith
