David Ruffin and Teddy P are two more whom I believe fly high above Stevie on this list.

I dont know about that.

Aside from the 'big three', I'd put Gaye, Redding, and Charles ahead of him.
Maybe Brown too....


And throw in Sam Cooke (probably the most influential of all) and Jackie Wilson easily above Stevie, who doesn't even take #1 on my list of Greatest "visually impared" Soul/R&B singers.


That's what I meant by the 'big three' - Cooke, McPhatter, and Wilson.

David Ruffin might just be the best ever at conveying emotion.

Also, Redding >>> Jackson, that's a no-brainer.

After Sam Cooke, Redding might be the most acclaimed vocalist in all of soul.

I mean that he has much more influence and acclaim, as a vocalist, than Jackson.

In soul? yes, I agree ... but not so much like you said.

Your list is very good, but Wonder and Brown are top 10.
