I just had to jump in here. Paul Robeson will always be, in my own humble opinion, the posessor of the finest singing voice ever given to a human being to hold in trust.
I met him when I was a child here in Toronto as part of a group of maybe 30 (my memory may be a bit fuzzy about the numbers) or so kids that he came and sang for and talked to, and I remember being immensly impressed - not to mention simply over-awed by his size.
I have a few of his records, and every time I listen to one, I am once again struck by how much his voice reminds me of a Hammond Organ when he holds a low note.
