    Since I've never really listened to Uriah Heap or Rainbow, and only early Sabbath with Ozzy, I'll follow Sturgeon's Lawyer's lead with the bands I know:

    Yes

    1. Jon Anderson
    2. Jon Davison
    3. Benoit David
    4. Trevor Horn (all of them good though)

    Genesis

    1. Peter Gabriel
    2. Ray Wilson
    3. Phil Collins (again, all of them are great singers to me, but sometimes Phil might lack a fullness that the other 2 have)

    King Crimson

    1. Boz Burrell (Islands is the loveliest singing ever, to me)
    2. Greg Lake
    3. John Wetton
    4. Gordon Haskell (although he's perfect in 'Lady of the Dancing Water')
    5. Adrian Belew

    Pink Floyd

    1. Richard Wright
    2. Dave Gilmour
    3. Roger Waters
