    Any of the unamplified G1s. I am a trained basso and cannot do that; my lowest, projected, unamplified note is an A1 (sometimes a G#1); even though I can reach D#1 (not counting subharmonics, which extend to D0) on-mic. Take someone like Zlatopolski, where his G1 is audible with a room-mic within a choir, that is just bonkers to me. To be picked up like that, his G1 had to have been better than 75-80dB at 1 metre from his mouth.

      My own contribution: I was home-recording some harmonies last week - the bridge in Cass Elliot's 'It's Getting Better' - (I'm male, Countertenor) and struggled to sing, with clarity and projection, F#2, and that would mean these guys with the fascinating bass voices are almost a full octave down from my best efforts Lol..

    There are such huge variations in sonic environments and miking that an objective comparison is almost impossible on the basis of these clips alone. One suspects that Zlatopolsky and Pasyukov had the most vocal power of these, but one would be hard-pressed to tell that here.

    A couple of these singers sound like theyre not hitting that G1 in chest voice, but the note is still impressive regardless. I would say that Glenn Miller and Zlatapolsky are easily the strongest. Many people seem to forget that singers like JD Sumner are singing directly into the microphone while the choral oktavists are projecting from a distance.
    I personal preference is Pasjukov. His notes are always so resonant. Many singers naturally sound "weird" in the contrabass register (I've heard it described as a frog-like croak), but Pasjukov's notes always sound like youd think someone with a super deep voice would.

Ain't going down live is tim's (rock solid for a live note), geoff's best is the one at the end of his "im dreaming of a white christmas" cover on his channel (most of his low notes are overly throaty but that one's both well supported and heavy-toned without sounding forced), and joe's is the one in all i want for christmas is you (not as climactic as the one in youre welcome but its about as long and is a bit smoother and less throaty). that's just my opinion though. regardless i think tim riley has my favorite G1 of the selection, with fouch being behind him. the choral ones are impressive for their projection but tone tends to suffer with that approach and its not my preference

Listen to the notes in the middle of his range, and you'll hear a baritone passaggio.

      Some were glottal compression... especially, for the unamplified bassos. Glottal compression isn't quite to fry, but starts to give a bass note a lot of upper, brighter harmonic content. This is very common with a basso or Oktavist singing loudly to equal the volume of a choir.

Even if it is not quite "fry" and it might still be chest voice, it is still not the prettiest sound. Ideally, you should try to avoid it as much as you can and only "compress" your low notes as a final resort.

      Does Storms have a chest voice? I've only ever hear vocal fry out of him.

    I am a huge fan of Thurl Ravenscroft just because his voice was so much a part of everything in my childhood

      I think Glenn Miller’s excerpt was good but I believe I’ve heard some G1’s by him that were stronger. Thanks for making this great compilation!

    Amazing to me that two people with the name Ravenscroft are cultural icons. Name the other?

    J.D Sumner for the win! Glenn Miller is not even holding the note properly... He is FAR from the best... sorry!
