Great guitarists that are just as good at singing?

I'll nominate George Benson. My god, this is smooth...



P.S. And yeah, he's a better guitar player than singer, but damn...

P.P.S. I'm looking for great guitar players who less known for their vocal skills. Should've worded that better...

Johnny Winter. I saw him a few years before he died. I expected great playing, but I was knocked out by his singing.

Despite my SRV vs Page blues thread, I think SRV was outstanding. His singing is overshadowed by his playing. He could have just sang, if it came to that. He really sold the songs in a big way.
