@@e.k.izzle32 Reverb and layering vocals is often used as a cover up for singers like him that sing in their throat to, "jamming," music (unless you were Freddie Mercury). Granted, he kind of sounded like a goat using vibrato. Not something often used with Aretha, Whitney, Celine, Mariah, etc. They can/could actually sing. This guy sounds like my drunk dad, "jammin' out," to some music in the garage. I mean come on, even with the 80's style of reverb vocals Journey's Steve Perry could sing. Michael Bolton could sing. You're revealing to me less about your point, and more about your lack of music talent. Do you sound like this guy when you sing? Is that why you like his sound? lol...

But the lavish 'no autotune' praise being heaped on studio vocals that are obviously doctored merits counter-hyperbole. Just generally, the whole 'no autotune' thing is very silly.

My dear friend Paul Grupp engineered that song and several others on that album. At age 20, he was the youngest engineer Capitol Records ever hired. They flew him to Boston to record that album in Tom Scholz’ basement recording studio. He engineered a couple of songs, but another engineer recorded more of them and Paul’s acknowledgment got buried in the credits and he was barely credited for his contribution. Paul was a great guy and a musical genius. He passed away on March 16, 2022. I miss him very much. Thank you for featuring a track my friend set up and reorded on reel-to-reel tape in 1976.❤

@@garybrown1902 every professionally recorded song had a sound engineer in the 70s. Each voice and instrument was miked individually and recorded onto one track of a 24 track, 2 inch reel-to-reel tape. Then the recording engineer would mix all of those tracks, balancing the volume, adding reverberation, etc. whatever was needed for each track. They did this on a huge mixing board with channels that corresponded to each track on the tape. Nothing was digital. What was recorded onto that tape was real. Yes, the engineers mixed, and “blended,” all of the tracks so that the end result, which was then recorded onto 1 inch tape had a good, balanced result.

Auto tune is an accommodation tool. As someone with asthma, I personally don't use it but respiratory and hearing problems are not easy to treat. It can also be artistic. Auto tune exists for a reason. There were very few talented artists back then too, it's just that people were more puritanical about what they would listen to. TL;DR: auto tune ain't what's making "untalented" artists popular, it's people liking different types of music now.

Bro never grew out of the 80s. Seriously, there are good artists, they're just not very popular because no one as unpopular as them can afford vocal classes. If your problem is pitch correction, listen to Deftones and then tell me it's not important. This singer lived back in a time when skill was the best thing you could have, and that's why you think musicians are worse when really back then not everyone had a chance. If your problem is rap, RACIST If your problem is pop, it's always been bad. Boston ain't pop. Rock peaked a long time ago for good reason. Metal and pop were far too distinct compared to rock and all of it's 00--03-057 and "boots cats and" beats was just on a decline due to cliches. I'd even say that this type of singing is a cliche.

@PIZZAdayisback If you don't like rap you're a racist? FUUUCK you. There is still some good music to be found today but rap ain't it. Rap isn't even really "black" music cause it isn't music at all. You want black music you start off with Mississippi Delta Blues, that became the Chicago Blues by artists like Howlin Wolf and Muddy Watters. THAT is black music and it is real, vibrant music. It inspired the British Invasion music scene as well as the Detroit MoTown sound. Rap? Rap is something else entirely and while there is rap/music fusion, rap in its pure form isn't music.

Back in 93 i was living in Colorado Springs. I went to a bar one night to see a local cover band everyone was talking about. They covered iron maiden, queensrych, rush and Boston. Their singer was something else. Two hours of belting out these killer songs and never missed a note. I asked him after the show, why he wasn't famous. He said im trying man.

I feel bad for those guys. I remember seeing a Journey cover band in 1989 and the singer was doing Steve Perry vocals note for note. Blew me away.

Singing covers will get you noticed but not necessarily signed to a contract. There's some astounding talent out there that will never see national recognition.

Unfortunately it’s not enough to duplicate it,you have to be able to write the tunes. Same with guitarists or any instrument.There’s millions of great technical players but if you can’t write a hit No one will know your name. It’s a tough business

@@johnnyhotrodmore than that, it's a case of what you're doing being what the current big thing is, or being able to pivot to it at the same time as a talent scout happens to hear your music. So much hard work needed, but also SO much sheer luck.

I wish my generation (I’m 23) got down with Boston and similar era music more often. It holds up so well after all this time. Tom Scholz is incredibly musically talented and combined with Brad Delp (god rest his soul) and the rest of the band they made some great music. Still waiting for the seventh album 🤞😂
