Second that on Alison Krauss, she has the voice of an angel. Karen Carpenter, Gwen Stefani and Pink. I have some favorites on the male side but they are not close to the female singers.
 
Some repeates here but these are some of the singers that I've enjoyed:

Ray Charles
Roy Orbison
Louis Armstrong
Robert Plant
Johnny Cash

Tina Turner
Charlotte Church
Stevie Nicks
Aretha Franklin
Annie Lennox
 
These are in my opinion some iconic singers of all sorts...in no way, shape or form a complete list...

Sinatra
George Strait
Hank Williams Sr.
Ray Price
Willie Nelson
Johnny Cash
Elvis
Dwight Yoakam
Brad Delp (Boston)
Barry Manilow
Hurricane Smith
Gilbert O'Sullivan
Roger Daltry
Andy Williams
The Everly Brothers
Johnny Rivers
Donald Fagen (Steely Dan)
Charlie Daniels

Speaking of Steely Dan, that was a TONNE of excellent vocal talent, just the backup vocalists alone!

I love Stevie Nicks as well Nav and thought of her but did not put her on my list. She does not have a great voice but what she has, she uses pretty well.
