Freddie's better. Especially when comparing live singing. Freddie even played the piano (as well as guitar) at the same time when singing. Robert only singed.
Don't get me wrong... I like Led Zeppelin, but can you actually classify what Plant did as singing? Most of the the time he was moaning, screaming and/or wailing.
A spot on impersonation of a porn actress!
"moaning, screaming and/or wailing"
Welcome to music!
"however I wonder how much it was even rehearsed considering how awkward it turned out in places"
Wasn't just Plant screwing up, either. Brian and Roger had a couple of moments, haha. I dunno - just a wrong place, wrong time kind of deal I think. Plant was sounding fantastic from around '95 to '98 - I won't even preface this with any kind of disclaimer, but he was sounding better than he had for a good chunk of the 70's.
It'll always be one of those 'great on paper' scenarios. Same as Queen with the Immigrant Song, I spose. Baha.
Well Robert was a big influence on Freddie, so without one we mightn't have had the other as a vocalist. I like both
Indeed; I love them both, even in periods where one argues that their voices were slipping. The fact that they thought so highly of each other should send a message to anyone who tries to credit one at the expense of the other.
