Depends what you are looking for in a vocalist.

Bon Scott's voice for example is full of character. When he tells you he slept with a 17 stone woman or got in a fight in a bar or spent years wandering around with no money trying to make it in the music industry you believe him because he had the conviction & sincerity in his voice to project that. He wasn't technically brilliant but then with those kind of songs he didn't need to be , and would sound unconvincing otherwise.
