Wonder why Kevin Costner isn't getting any votes? :)

Somehow I think the opinions on this thread may reveal some gender preferences, but for male voices, I fell in love with Sean Connery when I was about 3. For women's voices, I really like Lauren Bacall. And for singers, the male voice of my current fancy is Vance Gilbert, the female voice, Emmylou Harris or Linda Rondstadt, though I like Alberta Hunter on Handyman too.

Annap, yes, I certainly do remember Everett Dirksen, and I have that same album ~~ ran across it the other day, and considered playing it, but haven't yet. He was possibly the last of the old time orators ~~ certainly in today's television age there is no one like him, but that is another story. I lived most of my life in Illinois, so was fortunate to hear him many times.

Paddy, your choice of Dolores Keane certainly suits me. I'll have to think a bit to see if I can top that one.

Dinah Shore, in her early days before she lost her southern accent and started selling Chevrolets. Oh, MY!

I forgot to mention Maria Muldaur who once offered, "Let's slip off to a sand dune, real soon and kick up a little dust." On an album of hers she sings a song about "If you touch my knee". I can't quite remember what she looks like. I have an image in my mind of her singing in a flowered sarong with a hibiscus in her hair. But anyway, her inflection gets me every time.

I used to love this voice and I have never heard any that compare. I even went out and bought a record of his speeches.

Speaker of the house. Senator Everet(?) Dirkson.

Does anyone remember him? I used to listen just to hear him speak.

Love, annap

Sexy? Julie London, Those were my impressionable years but she was really sexy. I'm getting to old to wonder about who's sexy today and folk singers don't usually come off being or sounding sexy. Since the question is sexiest ever, I have to go with Julie London the pop/jazz songtress.

Sean Connery - yes, and I really love the accent.
Gordon Bok
John Rhys Davis(sp?) - he was on the TV show "Sliders" in the early days, and he does narration for documantaries (maybe Nat'l Geographic?)

There was a time when I might have gladly taken the ribbon from Rita Coolidge's hair. But I would most certainly have done ANYTHING Linda Ronstadt asked. M-m-m-m-m...and there was something about the way Merrilee Rush sang "Angel Of The Morning". But at this particular moment, Lucy Kaplanski could have me pretty cheaply. No particular reason that I can think of.

I agree, Fadac. Sean Connery has an attractive voice with an attractive accent. I love a good, vibrant bass voice. I have been attracted to men in the past because of their voice. (You listening SandyBob? :o)

On the romantic songs thread LEJ says...
Dusty (Springfield) had the sexiest voice ever recorded.

My vote would go to Ruby Murray.
