Asking you for some further elaboration or examples to support your claim about Marriott's voice is "condescending?"

Whatever gets you through the night.

You're spot on about the deterioration of Marriot's voice after about 1972. I saw Humble Pie on every American tour in the '70's, and whether it was the screaming or whatever, he just wasn't as good by Smokin'. He and Frampton were an interesting balance. Kind of lennon/mccartneyish.

Thanks Bombay, I appreciate that.

That original Velvets version is just chilling.

I haven't cared too much for his most recent offerings, but I would still see him in a heartbeat. I never have and I hope to at some point...I don't even care that his voice is long gone.

I don't know if there's a direct correlation, but screamers like Marriot and Roger Waters really lost a lot vocally down the road, while singers like David Gilmour have maintained their vocal capabilities well into their later years.

I'm not sure if it's the continued stress on the vocal cords, the drugs or what. I kinda question the screamer thing though. Lou Reed lost his voice to the point that anytime he raises it out of his Noo Yawk speak vocals, it cracks so painfully that it makes him very hard to listen to and he was never a screamer. For example: The much ballyhooed Live In Italy, I feel, is severely marred by his insistance to yell throughout the album, whereas if he had stuck to his soft spoken singspeak, it would've been the classic live Reed album that most think it is.

Just idle speculation on the screaming thing, I'm sure you're right. It's probably just freakish genetics or whatever that allow a few guys, like Gilmour, Crosby, etc to carry excellent vocal skills into their dotage.

The only time I've seen Lou Reed was at the Farm Aid show in Champaign in 1985. Good, but a very small sample. I'd gladly go see him if he showed up here in Denver, shot voice and all. Legendary.

Oh yeah, no question about it. Almost made a road trip to NYC for one of his shows a few times....but it never panned out and he's never came close to my area in the last few years. Someday

Oh, another thing. Dickey Betts came through last Friday night and we went. He puts on an excellent show now that he's clean. I will venture that it's a better Allman Brothers show than the Warren Haynes jam band with Greg Allman puts on.

I saw HP at least once on all of those 70s tours as well, and Marriott's voice was still in fine form, i.e., no problems with range or pitch or whatever, when I saw them.

Maybe you caught him on a bad night?

Check the section at the end where Dean Brown (gtr) is trading fours with the horn players.

Bad ass!

Saw Betts in '89 (around the time that he first discovered Warren Haynes.) Smokin' show!

Dickey was the guy who brought Haynes into the ABB back when the band re-formed in the late 80s.

Warren is a good player, but I liked his ABB predecessor (Dan Toler) more (even though the ABB records that featured Toler weren't the greatest from a songwriting perspective.) I saw that lineup a few times (actually opened a show for them in '82) and I thought Betts' and Toler's styles complimented one another more than Betts/Haynes. Toler got jazzy (in a way that was tasteful and in context) a lot, which appealed to my ears.
