I like both bands, and they did a good job of making the vibrato a part of their signature sound... but I always felt bad for any local vocalist trying to duplicate the style of either singer


Interesting that you mention Styx - the whole band was into musical theater, supposedly.

Another one that I can't believe I forgot - The King also sounded like a fake vibrato on many of his tunes, which make them irritating to some listeners.
https://youtu.be/vGJTaP6anOU I realize this is one of the greatest hits of all of rock and roll, but jeez, it bugs the living daylights out of me. I will listen to Styx over and over compared to this schlock.

Willie Nelson is another, but for some reason it doesn't sound faked to me and it has some endearing quality to it that I just can't put my finger on. My favorite Willie Nelson song of the past several years is his cover of Coldplay's The Scientist.
