I know the Ramsey original of that song Piper, nice version of a classic.
Heres John Martyn with "Spencer the Rover", lovely folk tune. I could have listened to this bloke play acoustic all day, not to mention the voice.
"Small Hours", one of my faves of all time, from any artist. Fecking Voodoo magick, man....Sublime. I know I'm going on about it a bit but it blows my mind how incredibly f*cking good it is, on many levels. This has a mighty 5,000 views on YT, whilst Nicki Minaj has about 500 million. WTF is wrong with this world.
John Martyn with the Floyds Dave Gilmour, ye might like this one Piper, "One World". Nice n' trippy, good vibes.

Here is one of the world's best voices which I never would have known about were it not for my godfather who played this tune for me on a CD some years ago. This is from a 1990 concert recorded at the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City (thus the album's name Juan Gabriel: En el Palacio de Bellas Artes). This song actually turns into a jam that lasts forever, so once the drums start you will have heard the gist of the song. The point is, his voice is beautiful, strong, and dynamic, and sounds just as good at the end of this 3+ hour concert as it did at the beginning. I honestly don't know much of his stuff, but last weekend I watched this entire concert and was impressed just by his voice alone.
