Johnny and Waylon are the stronger duo.

If we are talking straight up vocals:
George Strait and Alan Jackson are my two.

Individual acts: Waylon then everyone else.

The hell you say?

If Hank, Sr. is "ineligible" for some technical reason, then, I would say George Jones is #1.

frick it, Loretta Lynn is #2 (again, if Hank, Sr. is out).

When you hear Alan Jackson's voice on the radio he sounds IMHO what a country singer should sound like.

Marty Robbins is up there too and I would have him in a tie with George Strait

This guy would seem to be the most underrated country singer of all time. I don't think he's been mentioned once in this thread.

bullshite...Hank Sr. was the pulse of country music and he will be remembered as the greatest country singer of all time, bar none. Second one, IMO would be Merle Haggard.
