Maybe I wasn't clear, but that is exactly my point! I'd much rather hear the occasional bum note than listen to mechanically 'cleaned up' vocals.
[/quote] Yeah you threw me there. Are you saying that the vocals are digitally enhanced.?

True, my ears are 'shot' (a technical term...), but I can't hear any pitch correction in that clip. True, there's a 'framptonesque' voice box, but that's not the same as vocoding, I'd say, and is certainly not 'cheating'. All in all, the sessions I've listened to seem to be exemplary for the clarity of the take, especially as a 'live', all together one-shot, and special mention must go to the drummers, each able to put to rest the myth that drums have to be [i]loud[/i]. Not many of the artists are wearing ear protection, it seems; the one or two I've seen are rather using iem's. Good Stuff all round, and a Good Find; thanks for posting 'em.

Yes, it's quite inconsequential. I stand by my opinion - but it's just that; I'm sorry for bringing a negative tone to a good natured thread. @Bubinga5, I've enjoyed many of your contributions, so thanks for sharing. I do hope you all don't mind my nitpicking.

The show seems extremely polished overall. A ton of editing. I would bet all the tracks are mixed like any full blown pro recording.

I love the show.

[/quote]Not at all. It's an interesting point.

Fantastic show and if you haven't seen it yet check out the Grace Potter session

And my total favourite session has to be Todd Rundgen's a lot to love there specially these two songs:

Sweet - just sublime

Want of a nail - the epitome of a band cooking

They did a great job with it.

A good rendition.

But as a baby boomer I have to say it doesn't come close to the soul and passion captured in the original artists recording.

Don't disagree, was not suggesting that DB is/was better than AF. However the whole session had a great feel, you could see how DB was in awe of DH by the way she was looking at him, yet she was musically and vocally his equal (IMHO).
