Captain Beefheart
Arrington de Dionyso (Old Time Relijun)
Mark Stewart (The Pop Group)
Mike Patton (Mr. Bungle, Fantômas, Faith No More)
Yamatsuka Eye (Boredoms, Hanatarashi, Naked City)
Damo Suzuki (Can)
Keiji Haino
Tom Waits
Sainkho Namtchylak
Maynard James Keenan (Tool)

Suzuki! I can't believe I forgot about him.

I'm really not sure what the 15-year limit is about, so I'll ignore it.

In no particular order and spontaneously:

Freddie Mercury (obviously)
Jim Morrison
Billy Joel :shycouch:
Tom Waits
Elvis Presley
Bob Dylan (awful voice, fantastic vocalist)
Roger Hodgson
John Lennon
Art Garfunkel
Bobby Hatfield

You can probably tell I don't listen to much metal.

He's incredible. Peking O alone would earn him a spot on the list.

It was requested in the OP if you read it, which gives only a small window of time in order to name 10 actual good vocalist.

Here is mine that includes during the past 40 years or so.

Sammy Hagar
Paul Rogers
Annie Lennox
Ozzy Osbourne
Mick Jagger
Sebastian Bach
Steven Tyler
Bob Seger
Buddy Holly
Rob Halford
Steve Perry

So many more worth mention.

Absolutely everything he contributed to Can was amazing my personal favorites being Pinch and Soup.
