Motown questions for Jeff?

1. You posted a song you did awhile back "Somebody 2 Love", is that all your voice in the harmonies?

2. While watching the retrospective Talisman dvd there is a part where you are showing a recording studio on wheels, and a little snippet of you singing a Jackson 5 song "I'll be There" is playing......amazing. It sounds great. Did you ever record that at all? Or have any other motown gems laying around that you care to share?

I believe that is all Jeff on that song (it's a "hidden" track at the end of the Eyes album), but not 100% sure, Jeff? lol :wink:

I know which part of the Talisman DVD you're talking about too, lol. There's also a part where someone is singing "Rosanna" by Toto, I've wondered if that's Jeff too, lol.

I too have a question for Jeff. It is a serious, deep, profound question from a fan interested in the future of my favorite band and all of it's members.

Jeff, have you ever considered what you would be doing if not singing? You've got some pretty hot moves, I'm thinking a career as a male stripper would not be much of a stretch for you....

Profound, huh???? Right up there with 'boxers or briefs'! :twisted:

IT'S A JOKE, PEOPLE!!!! :lol:

Yeah, I know. Just trying to lighten the mood a little bit. I was just watching that YT that Deb (I think) posted, and I thought, 'man, I bet he could be an exotic dancer'... 8)

How long before 1 of the men on here get their own boxers or briefs all in an uproar & say "this is gay", "we're here to talk about the music only", blah, blah...lol. Who's it going to be? Who's it going to be? :twisted: lol

BTW, I agree, you should see his moves in a "hidden" part on one of his DVD's :twisted: lol.

Yep, did all the backing vocals, it was tough too because I had no clue how to keep in pitch with myself as I had no musical reference to guide from, only one backing vocal to build from & finger snaps to keep time....I learned later in doing them it's much easier to use a click track & a piano/organ guide reference.

The Talisman thing is when we were recording our 1st live album in Japan, it was a mobile studio brought in for the gig...no other Motown things on tape but have many a Motown moment during many a soundcheck.
