Chris Cornell is my favorite male singer from the current crop.
Adam reminds me more of a Bruce Dickenson (Maiden), or Geoff Tate (Queesnryche).
I think Adam would make an awesome front man for a hard core band. Could see him fronting a band like Iron Maiden.
We really have not seen a guy with a set of pipes and stage presence in a while.
There used to be a slew of em, Tyler, Halford, Dio,
Graham Bonnet.
Anyone remember Bonnet? He replaced Dio in Rainbow for one album. Used to hang out with Blackmore and Glover back in the day. They lived in my area and we had mutual friends. Bonnet was a bit of a disco boy appearance wise and every time his hair was just getting to a good length he'd show up for a gig with a haircut which would royally piss off Blackmore.
Just found this, two of my favorite singers, what a great performance.
