Still don't get ya, man, calm down, nobody was talking about JSS, just getting a boot. What's FTLOBM, anyway? Chill!Nunnayerbiz Ness wrote:thevoicelover wrote:WTF did you just say? No not you Larry, --Ness.
Stating the facts my friend...there's no bigger Perry fan in the UNIVERSE than me but for fuck's sake, how anyone can complain JSS can't hit the high notes or is 'pitchy' at times has to give me a break! It aint all peaches & cream on the road & boots are obviously no way to judge a singer. I happen to dig JSS's voice, don't know all his work except a few Talisman & solo stuff here & there but I have no problem with him in Journey.
Perry sounds very husky here, I missed the ROR tour but caught him twice on the FTLOBM tour & he didn't sound this raw. I kinda like it though, it makes the songs rock more...but again my point is what the new guy is bringing to the table...hell, sounds more like this, not the Pro Tools version of the 2001 DVD!
Gotcha! I agree about boot's. No prob'sNunnayerbiz Ness wrote:Oops, meant to say FTLOSM, my bad!! Sorry, it's just the recent posts on here about boots have been slaggin' the new boy, didn't mean to get anyone up in arms about it, it's just that listening to this one sparked up the controversy everyone bitching about. I couldn't help but think about JSS's Atlanta boot in comparison (although no comparison of course, this is PERRY!) & made me wonder if some people had wax in their ears.
My point was 'can't judge a singer by his boot' even when it's our boy SP!

Don't give me any of that Red13 or Monker bullshhit. If a singer fucks up, you hear it...if he sings strong, you hear it. It's raw.
Hell, if that's your argument, you can't judge Fraudgeri by Vegas 2001.....Hell, it wasn't even live for fucks sake. It was taped, then protooled, then recorded in studio. Yeah, I guess you can judge Fraudgeri...he sucks!

I can only imagine what it would be like to try it in 1996 and in 2006 when he was 10 and 20 years older. Let's face it, some studio tracks are extremely difficult to be reproduced in a live setting. When the singers are 20-something years old and their adrenalin is going full tilt, they can pull off near-miracles in the studio. Then afterwards when they are on the road they say, "Why in the funk did I hit that damn note so high? What the hell was I thinking?"
Good luck to anyone who tries to emulate Steve Perry's vocal tracks. They're going to need steroids to do it.
