Plant beats Freddie Mercury to the top spot in radio station poll.
Led Zeppelin frontman Robert Plant has been named as the greatest voice in the history of rock music in a new survey.
The singer topped the poll organised by Planet Rock, seeing off Queen's Freddie Mercury, who finished second, and Free's Paul Rodgers, who came in third.
Deep Purple star Ian Gillan was voted fourth, while the Who's Roger Daltry, David Coverdale from Whitesnake and Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose were fifth, sixth and seventh.
Completing the top ten were Bruce Dickinson from Iron Maiden, Rolling Stones singer Mick Jagger and AC/DC's Bon Scott, who finished eighth, ninth and tenth respectively.
Trevor White, programming director at the digital radio station, said the poll shows the impact British stars have had on the genre.
"It's great to see Britain has produced the top three greatest rock vocalists of all time," he stated.
Meanwhile, Robert Plant and Alison Krauss have been nominated for the Record of the Year prize at this year's Grammy awards for their song Please Read the Letter.
