Chris Cornell's vice is just as wonderful as it was 20 years ago. He is not as old as the others above, but has taken great care of himself.

He must have taken infinite care of his voice! He can still wail after all these years! My bf has a mild crush on him.

How could I forget!?! This man's voice has gotten BETTER over time if you ask me... Roger Hodgson (of Supertramp)- Dreamer

This complicates matters for me: I absolutely cannot stand Supertramp, but -- you're right -- Hodgson's voice definitely still holds up.

I always liked his voice. Neil Young - The Needle & The Damage Done
The voice has kept that 'quiver'. -

I may have to re-name this thread, shifting the focus to not only the great vocalists but the greats -- period -- who can still do their thizz-ang! Neil Young -Cinnamon Girl (live @ Madison Square Garden 200

Robert Plant/Led Zeppelin - Rock and Roll (teaser from the forthcoming DVD of the reunion shows)

I'd argue against that...Robert Plant is sorta in that Elton John category of "Yeah, it still sounds good...but it is quite different from the 70's!"

Neil kicks ass, no doubt about it. My personal favourite is Southern Man (and Heart of Gold), I can only find a version from 2000 with Crosby Stills & Nash, but God... the voice is totally haunting in that song, like a taunting Ghost of Christmas past (which is what he was going for). Here's the CSNY 2000 version.

Aren't Zeppelin a bit too rock n roll for ya Mr. Stones hater?
Rob's voice was phenomenal in the 70s, I thought the video showcased the talents he still has to offer.

I love Zeppelin! I saw ole Bobby Weed with the Band of Joy on their US tour 2011...it was like zeppelin + banjos!
My point was just that he's sorta made a new sound for himself, much like Elton John has. It isn't what the record sounds like, but it's still good...it's only rock and roll...but I like it

David Gilmour at age 61, with David Crosby and Graham Nash (both well over 60)

Our classic rock radio station here is playing Zeppelin A to Z right now and then their "new" album 'Celebration Day'. http://www.amazon.com/Celebration-Deluxe-Edition-Blu-Ray-digipak/dp/B009E3EY38/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1353363276&sr=8-1&keywords=led+zeppelin+celebration+day

I agree with the notion that Neil Young, Robert Plant, David Gilmour, David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash all have kept their lovely singing voices.
-
I'm one in that small minority of people who prefers solo-Plant over Zeppelin, but Robert Plant has managed to make vocal magic, despite his limitations these days.

Graham Nash...GORGEOUS voice still! My video of "Ruby Tuesday" as covered by CSN:

Our local dj Pierre Robert had him on his show today doing several songs from Breakfast in America acoustic. Awesome!
