So -- not a whole album, but here's a good sounding track, top to bottom (so to speak) -- including the vocal.
From the superb covers album Deadicated.
to me there's a few male voices that are the gold standard.
You know the ones... Farrokh Bulsara, Steve Perry, John Farnham. But I also hold special esteem for guys who are 'triple threats'... singer, songwriters and in these cases, piano men.
Elton John, Billy Joel.
I also quite like Roger Taylor and Lindsay Buckingham and Ian Moss... they were all overshadowed by other band members but their lead tracks are usually very strong.
here's an example of John Farnham in a period he'd rather forget but he's immensely strong here.
Some of my favorites would be Brad Roberts (Crash Test Dummies) and Chris Cornell (Soundgarden), Mel Torme, Nat King Cole, Bobby McFerrin, Al Jarreau, Van Morrison, Frank Sinatra, Marvin Gaye, Sam Cooke....
This is the year. This is the year in which Shervin Hajipour taught us that prepositions too can move us to tears. Here, he tells us some uses of the preposition "Baraye" ("For"). He used some of the wording from people's tweets (which are seen on-screen in the video) as the basis for his lyrics.
In this next video posted by YouTube channel VideoAmt, an enthusiastic crowd sings along to the same song by Shervin.
For a superb cover of the same song by a woman singer, see for example my post on page 75 of the "Female Vocals" thread on ASR: D.R.A.M.A. cover of Shervin's Baraye
James Taylor (vocals, guitar), Mark O'Connor (fiddle), Yo-Yo Ma (cello), Edgar Mayer (bass). Sorry for fuzzy video, music sounds fine. YouTube link to the album this is from, "Appalachian Jouney," from 2000, is below.
