JK? Are you having a laugh?
Lewis Taylor and D'Angelo are great at these - and you can't leave out Prince either. | |

Don't feel bad... 
I included Take 6 even though NDRU already mentioned them... 
At least I didn't become irritating and overbearing.

http://www.soundclick.com...dID=182431 See, sometimes I just don't pay attention, miss these things and become even more irritating and overbearing.I saw Brian Wilson on his Smile tour and the vocal arrangements were spectacular! His voice is not the greatest but just about everyone in his band (12+) were singing and the harmonys came over more lush than you could imagine 
Another to add to the list are Boyz II Men. FYI I saw them in concert a couple of weeks ago and godamnit Wanya can rip it live! _ Music, sweet music, I wish I could caress and...kiss, kiss... | |

How about Bilal? The vocals on '1st Born Second' are killer. Listen to 'Sometimes'. But maybe I don't quite get the question? | |

"In a recent interview with EQ, Rodney Jerkins was asked; "Who are some of the Best vocalists you've worked with, and what did you learn from them?"
Rodney answered with the following; "Michael Jackson is the best by far. I don't know who taught him how to cut background vocals, but he does things that no one else does. He'll do a hundred tracks of background vocals. He would do eight tracks of what he called accent vocals. He'd barely be singing but he'd hit the chorus line with a hard, syncopated rhythm. It was almost like he was talking, but it's not talking. He'd stack that over and over, and it would give the vocals aggression and bite. I've never seen anyone use more mics. He would have all these great mics in the room and then go through each one to figure out which one sounded the best for the track. A lot of artists are in too big of a rush and they don't take the time to do that stuff. He also taught me that you don't have to be right up on the mic on everything. Before I would tell the artist to breathe in the mic, to eat the mic. I wanted the vocalist right in your face. Michael would do that, but then he'd go in the corner and sing the next four tracks. That would give it a room sound, but without using a machine. That taught me so much. I never understood ghost tracks until I watched him work. He'll do these things that you think you can't hear, but they fill in the mix and make it bigger." | |

I vote for Chante Moore. The way she arranges her vocals on her albums,especially her first one is amazing... "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

Marvin Gaye. He was a master at the multi-layered harmonies inspired by his Moonglows days. "Here My Dear" wasn't his most successful CD, but it was one of my faves for exactly this reason. His vocal arrangements were off the charts! | |
