Elvis Presley - Las Vegas
According to Q Magazine seven of the top ten star singers are dead, including Otis Redding, Kurt Cobain, Jeff Buckley and John Lennon. The other two living singers in the top 10 are Robert Plant and, controversially, Mick Jagger.
They did a good job, wisely going big with Elvis as the top choice. We're going small, naming the definitive five singers in each category.
Elvis Presley, according to "The independent" remains, and perhaps always will, the King. Tomorrow, half a century after his recording debut, Elvis Presley will be crowned the greatest voice of all time by Q magazine.

Elvis Aaron Presley
(January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977), often known simply as Elvis and also called "The King of Rock 'n' Roll" or simply "The King", was an American singer, musician and actor. He remains a pop icon and is regarded by some to be the most important, original entertainer of the last fifty years. Presley is one of the most talked about and written about performers of the 20th Century. (Presley's birth certificate uses the spelling "Aaron", and his estate has designated this as the official spelling of his middle name. He used the name because of his twin brother, Garon, who died at birth so Elvis would always have a part of his brother with him.)
