I fully agree with what Frenky said about "Undercover Man." In this song, Hammill's voice "works" over more than 3 octaves (considering the initial whispers and the repeated falsetto notes in the verse following the sax solo), but even in the other three tracks, the voice is impressive. In my opinion, the peak of Hammill as a singer can be found in the albums between '73 and '76 (from "Chameleon" to "World Record"), where he established himself as the greatest chameleon of the throat in the history of rock; unfortunately, the timbre has darkened (from too many cigarettes?) and even the versatility has suffered. However, the voice has fortunately remained great over the years (and this version of the aforementioned song from a few years ago testifies to that: YouTube video non trovato 6pR-f6t4L7Y)
