I've loved this guy's songs since I didn't know when, and actually, I didn't know it was him!! I live in the Antipodes and I love how he is so REAL, super REAL...IF only I could write a song like that to match 'you make me feel, mighty real' thanks for the music!!
@@robmorrison1043 Nice! Ya, looked it up, ...Russ Kunkel on drums, Chuka Khan on bkg vocals. Not too shabby lineup on his album! I still laugh though when I think of that cameo scene he did in Animal House, where Belushi's character totally smashes his guitar! EPIC!
He has such a beautiful voice, and the lyrics are gorgeous. This type of song is what i would like to hear in 2023. Positive and clean music without the boring lyrics. What a talent! 🎵🎸🎹🎤
He is doing a great job and the audience is awful. Sure, its a canned track but still....they are working him overtime for some gratitude, poor Stephen.
@@lisamoroney3036 Sure, it was likely a backing track. That doesn't mean he wasn't singing his part live. A studio records on multiple tracks. One of them is for the lead singer, which they can mute if he's going to sing live. Merv Griffin sang the song, On & On, not long after this is performance. I don't know if it was a backing track or an unseen band, but Merv did a good job.
Crap? Polished, sophisticated, well crafted and top shelf production, arranged and musicianship. If that's crap, give me all crap all day! Eric Clapton played solo and Chaka Khan back up vocals
@@robmorrison1043 "Polished, sophisticated, well crafted and top shelf production" yes - that is what i said "top quality" .. but still essentially crap..
@Elleon DeMuskeres there is the lyrical power of Janis Ian, Joni Mitchel and Momus.. or the musical depth of Frank Zappa, Miles Davis and the Who Live at Leeds.. or the visceral coming together of the two with the Replacements and the Pretty Things..
