United States Postage Stamps: Music-Related

United States Postage Stamps:

Music-Related (1940-2022)

Originally this post was regarding the Legends of American Music Series, the first of which was issued on January 8, 1993, on what would have been Elvis Presley’s 58th birthday. More than 70 artists were honored in all styles of music from 1993 to 1999.

Since then, this page has been updated with other music makers who have been honored with stamps through 2022.

The Top 100 Singers of All Time

Singers:

Top 100

This list has been updated several times, most recently in 2026 after the Consequence.net ranking of the top 100 vocalists of all time. More than 70 lists – some of which focus on singers and some of which focus on greatest frontmen and women – have been aggregated to create this list.

Lists which purport to be “the best of all time” are usually flawed in several ways. First of all, they tend to focus on the rock era, oblivious that there was music before the 1950s. Second, they not only lean on that era, but tend to favor rock and roll artists. Third, those artists are overwhelmingly from English-speaking countries, namely the United States and the United Kingdom. While the third circumstance is still overwhelmingly obvious on this list, I have done my best to pull lists to represent different genres and eras as much as possible. It still isn’t perfect, but it does offer more diversity and representation than you’ll typically find on a best-of list.

See other lists of Acts/Music Makers by Categories.

2. Frank Sinatra
3. Aretha Franklin

15. John Lennon
16. Paul McCartney

35. Johnny Cash
36. Roger Daltrey

74. Rod Stewart
75. George Michael
76. Maria Callas
77. Perry Como
78. Diana Ross

Despite the shortcomings of lists such as these, don’t let that take away from rock gods like Robert Plant, Jim Morrison, and Mick Jagger who absolutely belong on this list. Image from thehelplessdancer.wordpress.com.

83. Debbie Harry
84. Ronnie James Dio
85. Joe Strummer
86. Bon Scott
87. Luciano Pavarotti

Dave's Faves: My Top 100 Compilations

Dave’s Faves:

My Top 100 Compilations

These are my personal favorite compilations. To clarify, I define a compilation as a hits-focused anthology comprised of the equivalent of 1 or 2 discs of predominantly studio material by one recording act. One of the challenges in compiling this list is how acts often have multiple compilations. Because of that, I opted to only feature one compilation per artist. I also developed a formula to weigh the compilations against each other so the “winner” wouldn’t automatically be the one with the most songs but the one with the best selection of songs. In essence, I rated the albums on a pound-for-pound basis, or the average points in my personal Database of all the songs on the collection. In parentheses after the name of the collection I indicate the years covered by the compilation followed by r. and another date which indicates the year of its release.
