He´s the first one I can think of, too. But then again I don´t know, because he IS Bon Jovi and therefore leaves the rest of the group in his shadow, while Mick is just ONE member although the front man. Being a great front man is not about being in the front all the time...

TOTALLY AGREE
Mick is the king
I would also qualify frontman or woman to that of a fronting a band.
James Brown or Aretha would not count IMO, as they are solo artists.
ALL THAT SAID
I would say here is a list of 5 non-stones, non-solo act people who fronted thier respective bands with style and cool.
Mike Monroe of Hanoi Rocks
David Lee Roth of Van Halen
Rod Stewart of the Faces
Peter Wolf of the J Geils Band
Eddie Spagetti of the Supersuckers

Yeah, Rod is a good choice.
Root Boy Slim (cool name) was a singer in the late 70's - early 80's. Don't know anything about him though. Enlighten us, oh great Lukester!

The best front man is not Mick, not that I don't think he isn't great, because he is. However, I think that the best frontman is Iggy Pop.

These Jon BJovi references are a joke right?
I cannot think of a more pathetic person in "rock" (though I would call his releases "dreck").
What a joke.
You want a front-man? PETER WOLF!

Iggy Pop is a good one. Sometimes when I see footage of Mick he does things that remind me of Iggy.

Iggy Pop is an animal! He does front the Stooges, a very good band IMO, but Iggy is the show.

I've seen Iggy Pop live: he's really good - except for the fact that maybe he should remember to wear panties before stepping on stage!!! Still, Mick Jagger belongs to a different league.
...Ah, and Bono of U2 is a joke!

Last: Bon Jovi,
I think people like Elvis and Bowie are fantastic, but they're not frontmen in bands..they are more frontmen for their own ideas or voices.
Springsteen is a terrific front man for a band
Nobody can compeat to Mick, IMO either
