bass singers?

[Red Stranger]

Do any of you know the names of good bass singers? The lower the better. In fact the singer doesn't even have to be good, just low.

Can't name any, but by creepy coincidence, I had the song "Mr. Bass Man" running through my head only an hour ago. Spooky.

Doesn't have to be famous. Just people that I can get access to, now. I don't want to wait a couple of days for the CD to come. But if they have any music that I can buy online, that's good.

I have one that you would definetly like, even though he is more so a baritone:

Johnny Hartman.

An amazing baritone voice, overall an extraordinary vocal talent.

You should check him out.

Louie Armstrong? Or how is he classified? Anyway, a nice deep gravelly voice.

 

[downtown]

Barry White .... duh.

Oh snap! of course!

Also, Solomon Burke. Al Green maybe?

 

[Cuchullain]

Leonard Cohen --- or would he be considered a baritone?

 

[Rambuchan]

Paul Robeson.

"Ol' Man River"
"Swing Low, Sweet Chariot"
etc

That man's voice was DEEP.
