Old voices that don't sound the same

[twonabomber]

Rod Stewart's voice is a shadow of what it once was, as well.

And he's still great too.

Singing great, but writing crap. And that's if he isn't doing another covers album.

Paul McCartney but still better then the majority of the talentless hacks that make up "popular" rock today.

The guy from REO. His voice is terrible now. Roger Daltry also. Dave. His voice changed after A Lil Ain't Enough. Lots of them sound different/bad. But its what they do, so I don't think it will stop them.

Daltry's voice sounds a bit raspier and deeper but he still sounds like the same singer to me. "Good Looking Boy" sounded like classic Who to me.

I don't think Paul sounds different than he once did though. That song he did with Grohl could've passed for a grungy Wings reject from 37 years ago. His pipes have held up well. His face is aging like an old lady, though.

I'm not a big Beatles fan. I think Lennon and McCartney were talented song writers. And they were decent musicians as well. Maybe they just got too much exposure. Something about them doesn't get it for me. I like a few of their songs but I just don't like them. George and Ringo were much more likable. The Lennon vs McCartney thing made them look like hired hands in the band.

I saw a picture of Steven Tyler at Sturgis a few years ago and he looked exactly like an old woman with the helmut he was wearing. An old woman in curlers.

I by no means am saying he has fallen off the cliff or anything, just notice some changes in how some of his live stuff sounds, Lord knows it could be in my head lol

I know, I'm just thinking in terms of the opening post to the thread regarding someone's voice changing to the point of not even sounding like the same person anymore.

The singer for REO is just brutal anymore, yikes.

You can still hear some of the person but you might think it was a bad impersonation maybe.

Dan McCafferty from Nazareth is another one who has lost his pipes...

Robert Planet................


EVERYBODIES voice "changes"...hell, even SINATRA couldn't hit the high notes in his elder years.....it gets everybody

1972 was a cruel winter

[Mr. Vengeance]

Ian Gillan can't come close to the high notes anymore.

I dunno about that. Saw a clip of him doing Young Turks in 2010 with Stevie Nicks, and the song had to be tuned down nearly a whole step from the original recording to accomodate Stewart...and even THEN he sounded dull and lifeless...

And he hasn't really put out much of anything worthwhile since the mid-1980s far as original material goes.
