I would say its Paul McCartney, no contest. I am now convinced he is the greatest all around musician in rock history and probably one of the greatest singers ever recorded. He plays every instrument, is perhaps the greatest Bass player in rock history, and he is the greatest vocalist in rock history. Add to that the fact that he has written the most melodic music of the pastā?¦ well ever.

John Lennon was quoted as saying that McCartney was the best drummer in the Beatles. In addition to that he played lead guitar on almost all the Beatles songs in 66-67 (he was there bass player if you didnā??t know). Perhaps most impressive however is his vocals. He can pretty much pull of any type of singing , he does everything from a spectacular Robert Plant impression to Jon Andersoneaque Countertenor to Little Richard (but better) screaming. Can anybody come close to McCartney?
