Stevie Ray Vaughn: C or D / S & D

Sounds like you guys would jump on a Andrea Bocelli sings the blues album.
LMAO

SRV doesn't rank among my favorite singers, but dismissing someone altogether with "I can't stand his voice" is worthless criticism, it's typically a sign of personal prejudice and not much else. Too many voices to name are acquired tastes.

Ah then that shows my beautiful purity, since I hate all singers, and music, and in fact most everything. I am only interested in concrete walls.

Or, y'know, sometimes people just find certain voices really off-putting. I swear to god, the amount of energy people put into assuming bad or dishonest intent when someone doesn't like a particular artist is bonkers to me.

It's kind of the Rush corollary for me: in the end, I'm really not listening for the singing.

I can usually put aside voices I don't love, I mean stoner rock in particular is littered with mediocre to awful singes but they usually are sparse and/or buried enough in fuzz that they don't bother me. SRV's voice, however, seems to just cut right through everything to pierce my appreciation of his guitar playing. His instrumentals are pretty good though!

Just here to say “life by the drop” is a beautiful song

Oh please, it doesn't take nearly as much effort as going on and on about how everyone is wrong to like someone because THE VOICE!
