Hi Lynn !
It sounds like this is a rough memory in the vistory quest. I
am sorry.
Going for a 4lane Highway tonight ?...lol..
You know,
for the UA period, I think this (A Minor Ballad) and
'Softly' are two of the most
beautiful songs; besides killer
good melodies, and vocals with loooong lungfulls of air, and sterling
vibrato that just..did...not..quit in both ! They are magnificent examples of what he could do with his voice when he chose to. I am able to hear strong vibrato when he wanted it time-wise up to the Salute album if I am not mistaken, DSR,too. EOM it started to fade to my ear. You something funny though, on the song title
'A Minor Ballad', when I first started listening as truly 'young Steve' then at 14, I did not know the vernacular from written music or formal music education in any way - just junior-high mandatory music class, and though we had a cool, 'hip' young teacher, he was 'given' a dogma-based curriculum to teach, like it or not. I did not. Well anyway, point being is that i had no idea that 'A minor' was a music tonal or key variation, still don't really...lol. and (get this) I thought "A Minor Ballad" meant "an small, unimportant ballad"- literally, and thought "why would he talk down the importance of his own work ? Very embarrassed when I found out, ( only about 5 years ago....when reading an article on music theory lol) -boy am I embarrassed. OK well I'll put ole' Big X up . Thanks !
My voice is different at 50 ('young steve' to some ppl in here ! works for me lol) than it was when I was 25 too, and I don't even smoke. I say ppl that rag on his voice changing should have their mouths erased like in the movie 'Matrix' !
Oh your submit
Q324 Nor .... =
