I'm intrigued as to how his voice is holding up, at 84.

Art Garfunkel tour alert!
After years away, AG is touring in 2026, across the US and UK. Unfortunately, I have a conflict in June when he plays in my backyard (San Antonio). However, I may plot to see him in Chicago before thanksgiving, and maybe squeeze in a trip to the new Obama Presidential Library and a football game while I’m there! |

A week today - BEAT (Belew, Levin, Vai, Carey) in London. Early 1980s Crimson repertoire. I'll be intrigued to know what you think, Paul. To my ears there's one weak link in that chain, and try as I might I just can't quite get beyond it. |

Unlike my sister, I have only seen any of the Beatles on rare occasions.
Last time I saw Macca on tour was in the USA on October 7 2002 at the Entertainment and Sports Arena, Raleigh, NC, The show was brilliant, he was in full voice and it was a treat to see and hear him. He was a mere 60 years old at the time. He was a great artist then and still is. |

I watched him live and downloaded the iPlayer version a couple of days later. The vocals had been spruced up, to my eats. I promise not to laugh at Andy's typo, but can confirm that the initial raw mix was far less kind than the remastered version used for posterity. Jules |

On this album, voice tremors etc have been left in, presumably deliberately. I hope that clarifies my original sentence. Haha. Yessir. Interesting that he's not attempting to hide it. Or maybe it's now just not possible. Jules |

When Macca was at Glastonbury, a lot of work was done overnight so that the version on iPlayer had a much stronger voice than he had had live. Any evidence to support this statement, Andy? |

the production has been deliberately engineered to leave the problem areas on the record I don't understand this sentence.
