There are plenty of good frontmen. I don't think Dickinson is a contender for best frontman.

Frontman implies a member of a group.  Elvis was a solo artist.

I don't love most of Springsteen's music but I do think he's a good frontman. If you consider the E Street Band to be his group.

Yes he stood out front.  Because he was a solo act.  He didn't have a band, he rotated through various musicians for recording and touring.

Michael Jackson? Yeah, he was a solo act, too.

Prince was the frontman for the Revolution.  A pretty good one, IMO.

I love Rush but I don't think Geddy Lee was much of a frontman.  That's definitely more of an ensemble act IMO.

Agreed. Geddy was not flashy at all. Too busy making great music.

Saw Sammy at Cabo Wabo a few years ago. He and Michael Anthony kicked ass on that stage.
saw the Who about a year ago and Roger Daltrey's voice was a strong as ever.

not initially. he started out as the frontman of his family band the Jackson 5 of course and hit big as like a 9-10 year old child. 

Michael Jackson was an insanely talented vocalist and performer as an adult- but when he was a child on Motown singing soul music- that was probably when he was at his greatest as a vocalist. To be like 10 years old and to be able to sing like that....it's fucking unbelievable honestly...

The Jackson 5 was a group.

I suppose you could say he was the frontboy of that act. :)
