Pure Gravel

Just a quick one...

Here are my top 5 Gravelly Voiced actors of all time.
#5 Brian Doyle Murray (Slightly Lesser Known Brother Of Bill)
#4 Harvey Firestein (I Just Want To Be Loved Is That So Wrong?)
#3 Brian Mahoney (I'm Incarcerated Lloyd!)
#2 James Gammon (Nice Catch Hayes...Don't Ever Fuckin' Do it Again)
And in a slight upset.

#1 Who Knew He Was Canadian...Star of such movies as Born on the fourth of July, The Doors, Strange Days and Robin Hood Prince of Thieves.

Michael Wincott






















A special award goes to Francesco Quinn, who is probably most famous for being Anthony Quinn's son, but I like him best as the very gravelly Rhah from platoon, who very gravelly while wearing shorts (probably not the safest things with all the insects in the vietnameses jungle) and carrying a staff with Barbed Wire on it yelled to Charlie Sheen and Living Colour's Corey Glover as they flew away on the helicopter at the end of the movie.

It appears Mr. Quinn, has found a steady role in very many tv shows. Mostly as "The Gravelly Man". He has appeared in 24, Law and Order and Crossing Jordan, just to name a few.
