If you take all the great non-singers out of the punk era, there's not a lot left, is there?<BR/><BR/>Robert Wyatt's a funny one, isn't he? He can sing really intricate melodies but there's usually something a bit wonky or approximate about the pitching.<BR/><BR/>I liked JC's list but don't think Tracy Thorn or Liz Fraser should be in there. Liz F's style is a bit, erm, unorthodox but she's got a bit of range, and she can hit the notes. And Tracy T was enough of a 'proper' singer to handle a standard like 'Night And Day', even back in the days when 'Distant Shore' was such a wobbly lo-fi 4-track marvel.<BR/><BR/>My favourite caterwauling: Ari Upp and the Slits tearing up 'Love And Romance' at the Lyceum 1978. They gave The Clash a run for their money that night!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7743662393406070153.post-90549536247451455772008-05-12T19:00:00.000+01:002008-05-12T19:00:00.000+01:00marc almond, edwyn collins, ian curtis, elizabeth ...marc almond, edwyn collins, ian curtis, elizabeth fraser, howard devoto, billy bragg, stephen patrick morrissey, terry hall, bjork, nick cave, david gedge, shaun ryder, tracey thorn, gordon gano....not one of these gods/goddesses would have made it.<BR/><BR/>But I wonder if the fresh-faced Paddy McAloon would have squeezed in??JChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05090608248723528292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7743662393406070153.post-68245755603857721752008-05-12T13:10:00.000+01:002008-05-12T13:10:00.000+01:00Cliff was robbed by fascist he's the true street f...Cliff was robbed by fascist he's the true street fighting man.
