No one will ever come close to Freddie. I remember Freddie coming second to Bon Scott in a top 100 frontmen of all time poll in something like Classic Rock Mag. I'm no Queen fan, but for me Freddie is the all-time No1 by some distance. I will admit Bon Scott was pretty damn good too, although I'd still rate Freddie higher.

No Don Barnes or Donnie Van Zant.... No Jeff Lynne.... No Lemmy.... I could go on.... but for me all of the above come way before anyone in the topic list.... learn to read why Lemmy is not on. Does Lynne play guitar... see above.

Does Lynne play guitar... see above. Does Phil Collins not play drums.....? I have seen Queen twice and both times Freddie played both Piano and Guitar.... I have also seen Sammy Hagar twice and both times he played Guitar.... I could go on....

Freddie Mercury. imo, without a shadow of doubt I know I will be in a small minority and as a front man he was very good but wasn't he just a bit shit. Not keen on his singing.

Who would people regard as the greatest frontman. Purely singers only not singer guitar/bass players. EG Hendrix, Clapton, Phil Lynott or even the 3 Quo Singers. Solo singers like Bowie and Marc Bolan also not included. OK Flashy, my list has been brought to task by PF..... I'll let you have Freddy..... But Sammy Hagar played a hell of a lot of guitar when I saw him...? And Phil Collins played drums for Genesis and is a solo singer other than that, so should be omitted. And Marc Bolan should be omitted but not for being a solo singer but as a frontman who played guitar. Sorry for the post... I was quite happy with what you and I had posted thus far, but PF seemed bothered by what I had posted for some reason, so though it best to try and appease him before he starts....
