And as a heads up, I imagine a lot of people will be voting for Freddie Mercury, Roger Waters and Mick Jagger…

A lot of people voted for Barabus.

If the question is who is the best British singer in a rock'n'roll style then my vote would have to go to the irascible old lockdown sceptic:

Really interesting but the question is what rock and roll for me Ozzy Osbourne

Sticking to the rock criteria for the female nominations, she's British, she's rocking and she's proud to bs a honky woman here singing with Vinegar Joe alongside Robert Palmer on TOGWT.... Elkie Brooks

She's IN

Another nominee for the female category and another blast from the past is Scottish rocker Maggie Bell, vocalist for Stone the Crows.....

Her vocals might be more familiar to those who enjoyed TV detective dramas in the 70s/80s as she sang on the credits of long running tv series Taggart and not quite so long running TV series Hazell....

Her vocals also featured in yet another TV detective series, "Lewis" when she provided the singing voice for Joanna Lumley's character in the episode "Counter Culture Blues"

IN!

Steve Winwood. Not many 18 year olds can sing like this :

Seeing some of the names that have been added, I find it incredible that Tom Jones isn't included.

If we're talking about who epitomises rock n roll the most, who truly lived the lifestyle, this is the only acceptable answer.

WATFORD zero · 2024-11-23T12:23:04+0000

We're gonna need a bigger poll :facepalm:

@Bozza had better up the poll options limit

Tony Towner's Fridge · 2024-11-23T12:24:25+0000

I would vote for Shakin Stevens, Green Door and all that!
