Don't be jealous you can NEVER sing like this.. Tate is a vocal GOD...
Amen to that! This dude...🙄
Those that can , sing. Those that can't , teach.
The Lord Jesus Christ blessed Geoff Tate with his voice and he's sharing his blessings with the rest of us.
The first time a dude mentioned Geoff missed a note and recovered. Don’t believe that happened in this performance.
I love the astonishment from the vocal coaches when Geoff lets loose. I actually feel sorry for you, that because of your parents you missed seeing and knowing about incredible bands like Queensryche, who were simply superb, on every level.
Just for perspective. This was the 11th song in a 12 song hour long set. The man's a beast
Definitely impressive!!!
One thing you don't say while listening to Tate in his prime is, "O.K., I think I've heard enough....." You lost me there bra.
Yup
Same.
You completely skipped the E natural above high C he hits close to the end. As a singer myself, I have trouble as a woman hitting those notes. This is also an encore and he’s already been singing for two hours, so a wavering of the notes occasionally can be forgiven. Not to mention the fact that only a trained war will be able to distinguish those tiny moments. Tate is amazing and so is the band. The entire band offer great vocal support. It’s difficult for lots of people who don’t get into metal/rock bands, to understand the music. You may need to react/listen to more before assuming anything. Not offended, just want people to understand how metal and progressive metal vocalists and musicians operate.
Now I kind of wanna see you do a deep dive into it.
Just this comment is interesting enough for me to want more.
I agree with you. They little note of triumph made the song. He was a GOD that night, and he knew it.
love your coment, you are absolutly right, and while he was listening in his face there was only contempt, his final conment was: yeh hi's fine..... its ok to have diferent opinion but this was diferent XD
I couldn't have said it better myself. That is, hmm. I'll rephrase: I agree with you emphatically. I love how this guy took the time to listen, but he seemed a bit early-dismissive for some reason. Those E5s that Geoff can (could) hit were UNBELIEVABLE and are so underrated. Ken feigned interest in this, but I guess I should be happy that he even entertained metal music at all. I dunno. Anyway, Rebecca, I agree with you.
E5+
Dude, this out of your league , sorry ....
Exactly. Tate is the truth
This guy’s a joke. Is there an unsubscribe button before you subscribe?
Geoff Tates voice is legendary, I don't care what anyone says. ✌
@Fill J. no, no he doesn't.. In the sense that there is no need to compare the two voices as in competition... They are equally amazing in certain performance perspectives. IMO
@FatalPies There wouldn't never have been a midnight without Geoff. He invented this style. We all copied it.
It’s a shame it didn’t last long.
@FatalPies Tate > rest of the world.
@FatalPies No.
Seriously?? He hits that E5 and you're like, NO reaction.
He thinks it’s a “noise”...
Every other reaction video, the hosts hear that E-5, and their jaws are dropped and eyeballs popped. How anyone can not be impressed with that is beyond me.
Thank you for saying what I was thinking. Dude should stick to reacting to Frank Sinatra or whatever genre he likes. Me, I appreciate God given musical instruments in human throats. It doesn't matter if it's Bobby Hatfield singing "Unchained Melody", or Tarja Turunen singing "Wishmaster". I can't carry a tune in a bucket, so maybe that is why I envy the special few with the gift. I like classical, country, pop, and most forms of hard rock and metal. Lucky for me,,,
I think this guy is a voice cat trainer, thats why he's Not surprised of that increíble GT voice.
well, judging by the beating youve taken in the comments, im just gonna bow out and say that your disrespect for one of the greatest voices in music is unacceptable.
Freaking joker
This was the encore song so he can be forgiven for missing a note.. For me this is one of the greatest LIVE vocal performances of all time.
All the videos I have seen have Queen of the Reich as the last song.
@@gneric85 It was the last song of the regular set. Still quite impressive though.
the show itself was the 3nd Tokyo show and the 2nd of that night, they played one at 3 pm, then again at 6:30 pm
@@Dehumanizer3000 That's inhuman...
He didn't miss a note. This clown doesn't know rock.
Geoff Tate in the 80s and most of the 90s? Ha, you couldnt touch that guy with Bruce Dickinson and Rob Halford's pipes combined. He was PHENOMENAL!
Take note kids, this is what happens when your parents choose your music for you.
Yep, absolute abysmal review/reaction. This performance was absolutely insane, anyone who was trained even for a bit knows that.
Geoff Tate is one of the best if not the best in hard rock!
Unfortunately I agree with most of what has already been said. What an underwhelming reaction to an overwhelming performance!! Arguably (and I will argue with you) the best live vocal performance is "Take Hold Of The Flame" circa. 1984. Just look at the number of reaction videos, many by well-known vocal coaches/teachers. The detail varies from "OMG, that was cool" to " Here he was in the range of D above high C". If you want to understand exactly what Mr. Tate is doing with his voice; check out Mike Goodrich - Inner Singer. For me, he's done the best job of analyzing Geoff's voice because his initial reactions are emotional - then he explains what he just heard.
Ken, I think your distaste for this type of music comes oozing through your reaction (unfortunately). Geoff Tate is regarded by MANY as top 3 GOAT in metal.
Yeah. Its apparent.
It's probably cos mummy and daddy wouldn't let him listen to real music and the bitterness is coming through
Not by me. Dio, Halford, Bruce...These guys are a league above Geoff.
Queensryche is a good band, but only in america people seem to think they are legendary, when in the rest of the metal community they are a second tier band.
Personaly I dont like Geoff's singing, whenever he bridges up into the mix he just doesnt bridge back down. he just pushes his head voice down and sounds really weird on the mid range notes. Michael Kiske also uses this technique, but does it much better in my opinion.
I just dont understand why american metal fans seem to think so highly of this band. I even hear some say they are in the "big 3 of progmetal". In reality 80% of what they do cant even be called prog.
Imagine thinking that this band is comparable to Dream Theater! What a joke!
@@juyifan7933 Respect. But I live in the US. And Tate is from the US. Sooooo........
@Paul Belodeau Michael Kiske is much more influential in the metal community at large than Geoff Tate. Michael Kiske is largely responsible for making powermetal the most popular form of melodic metal in the 90's.
Objectively speaking Geoff Tate hasnt been nearly as big an influence in the metal genre as any of the vocalists I mentioned.
I can respect someone liking and being nostalgic about something. But from your comment I gather that you are more a Queensryche fan than a musician or even an actual metal listener.
There are singers that would literally give up a limb for his voice.
Geoff Tate in his primes was unbeatable. His range was (is) incredible!!!
Was incredible... not so much these days but as with age all vocals change
@FatalPies I love Midnight! Listening to Crimson Glory since I was a teenager. Haven’t heard that many live gigs of CG.
@@erwinamesz7642 Transcendence is my favorite of their songs. It makes me cry every time. I've only heard the album version though.
@@Knight-of-Sarcasm tears cleanse the soul, so cry me a river 🤘
@FatalPies it always has to be a competition. Geoff was more graceful with his high notes, Midnight was more raw with his. They are both amazing singers, they both can hit the same notes in this era.. so I think it’s unfair to say two of the greatest upper register singers of all time are better than the other.
LOL at your eyes when he hit that E5 effortlessly.
The man went from an E4 to an E3 back to E4, then to an E5 and it wasn't a falsetto, gotta respect.
yes!!!!!!!!!!!
Not to mention Degarmo hitting the high harmonies at times above Tate, Just a masterclass in composition and vocal technique.
No auto tune...live. Excellent. I’ve seen them live many years ago and the guy was amazing. One of those groups that sounds great Live. I’ve been to concerts as you know I’m sure, it was obvious the studio made them sound good because the live performance they just weren’t that good. These guys? They were extremely legit
With the comment of "singing the easiest vowel spread AAAAAA", I have yet to hear a vocal coach match the power and ability of Geoff Tate, from this era. Even the new singer Todd can't match. Sure he can hit high notes but nobody will be mistaken for being Tate.
@FatalPies I meant a male vocal coach. I have seen 2 videos about Geoff Tate and neither even come close. :-)
Geoff's vibrato in his high notes is unmatched.
@@gneric85 Check out Dimash Kudaibergen; he's not a vocal coach, but he's an outstanding vocalist. He does more of a classical/pop blend in most of his songs, but he's phenomenal and has amazing vocal control and uses vibrato (among a vast array of other techniques) a lot. He could definitely sing metal if he wanted to.
@FatalPies When I saw Crimson Glory back in the late 80's in Boston, Midnight had a compressor on his voice. He had a crazy high range. Red Sharks comes to mind. Awesome band RIP Midnight
Todd comes across (to me) as a Falsetto singer/screamer and one of those generic metal "great voices" e.g. some of Candlemass' singers, the guy who replaced Jorn Lande in Beyond Twilight, the Seven Witches vocalist to name a few. Originally designated as a budget Geoff Tate to capitalise on the metalryche fans and people chomping at the bit for nothing but the early stuff.
The stuff I've listened to with Todd comes off more as generic metal. It's obvious that (for me at least) Geoff Tate and Chris DeGarmo are who gave Queensryche their identity. Even now, you can hear Geoff's voice and instantly know it's him even if he ain't constantly belting out the fifth octave anymore.
Imo best metal vocalist of all time.
There's no doubt and this guy talking is strange as f k
Maybe aside Floor. But none the less spectacular
Tate and Halford for the win !!!
Tate, Dio, and Floor are probably my top 3.
@@JaceFincham Bruce Dickenson should be added as well!
You are making him out to be a one-trick pony...Geoff Tate is far from it.
yeah he is a 2 trick pony
@@13christbane Well that's 2 more than you have brain cells so there's that...
Geoff Tate is legendary
You that jealous?
@@13christbane Geoff was amazing through the first 3-4 albums...and then I blame the writing and not his vocals as much...he was still good but the albums sucked.
Nice reaction!
The incredible thing about this clip is that this song was over an hour into the set.
Nice reaction? Sorry this guy talked out of his 🐴
Ken: "How is he making that noise?"
Geoff Tate: "Yes"
Noise? Lol. That's called singing...
Wow... I have to question how good of a vocal coach you are after this reaction. This is seriously one of the best live metal/rock performances of all time. Geoff Tate is an unbelievable vocalist that I doubt you could hold a candle to. Not that I'll be back to find out since there are so many better vocal coach reactions out there that actually break down these amazing performances without having to make themselves sit through it
Agree with you 100%. Every other vocal coach has nothing but praise for Tate. This guy wishes he could even be half as good as Tate.
@@kmthor2349
Yeah, that kind of threw me too.
It's not hard to understand the words if you're actually listening.
Tate in his 60s can sing better than his critics. Tate isn't my personal favorite metal singer of all time but he is in Top 10. Saw them in the 80s, he was flawless through the whole 1 1/2 hour set!
Geoff had a 4 octave range and was classically trained and had been tutored by "Maestro" David Kyle. Heard the other members also had training by David as well. Other Seattle area singers, Ann Wilson, Layne Staley and Chris Cornell also had training with the "Maestro"!
I believe that his aunt was an opera singer as well.
@@HocusPocusFocus69 You are absolutely right!
Ken Tamplin was one of the students too. He has the best reaction video on this song where he sings a few parts himself too.
The Best metal baritone ever !!!
I’ve always said that DeGarmos backing vocals are so good and so important to the songs that he often gets overlooked.
This dude dont get it
Hey sir, you may be one of the newer Vocal Coach channels, but certainly you have a good channel here.
However, cutting the songs,hmm.
i was over his "review" when he said "he thought he heard enough"
Geoff and I are both natural Baritones... that's definitely where the similarities end. ;-)
I'm in the same boat with you. His range and control are incredible and ridiculous. I'm just ridiculous.
This was live. This was live. This was live.
that guy has such incredible range!
had
Ha ha! Geoff Tate may be the greatest rock vocalist of all time, I love it when someone has no clue and hears this master for the 1st time. I suggest you discover this man’s talents further. Roads to Madness is my fave song
Amen brother. These clowns don't know shit about the 80s rock. Their mommies wouldn't let them listen. Boo hoo
My favorite too. The way he enunciates and phrases words when he sings (especially that song) is haunting.
@@scottarnest8980 Amen brother
Road to madness is the best ever
Agreed road to madness is also a favorite really shows his range
Back in those days Geoff was at the absolute top of the game . The very best of the best . Nobody else came anywhere near close to being on Queensryches level .
Gees dude. I could see the jealousy in your post. Give some credit to the greatest rock singer of all time
Geoff was vocally trained by Maestro Kyle at his studio in Seattle on Alki beach...
Tate was above all else vocally and lyrically.
Dude sounds like he can do it why don't you show us do a backing track and sing the lyrics we're waiting
Hey! He damaged his microphone ya know... 6:17 😆
What a dork!
So Queensryche was absolutely lethal in their prime, technically gifted as a whole (Besides Geoff's vocals, Chris was arguably one of the best guitarist of his time) Operation Mindcrime is one of the most important and incredible albums ever conceived. They were so good that at a point, bands didn't want them opening on tour for them because they'd take over their shows.
the guitar player wasn't anything special, nit even top 100.
@@louiscyfer6944 Chris DeGarmo? You're kdding right?
@@Coasterdude02149 not kidding
@@louiscyfer6944 definitely better than slash, mick Mars, cc Deville lol
@@ChangGang better than those.
Geoff Tate, Rob Halford, Sebastian Bach and many other metal singers are classically trained. The "leap" as some call it isn't that far. Classical music and most metal are the same. Look at some of the best guitarists from this era and they are also classically trained.
Geoff Tate was instructed by tbe same individual who trained Ann and Nancy Wilson of " Heart " .
David P. Kyle
Maestro David Kyle also taught Don Dokken, Layne Staley from Alice in Chains, and Chris Cornell from Sound Garden.
Don't forget Midnight from Crimson Glory as well.
To have that power as an encore song is amazing! Geoff Tate is seriously underrated
who said he was underrated?
I've never heard anyone say he's underrated
And now at 8:50, he's edited his flippant critique out of the video. 🤣🤣🤣
Should've just removed the whole "reaction," or lack thereof. 🙄
the danger in identifying the tools that a singer is singing is that it reduces the art of singing to seemingly simple tradecraft. it is not simple. give an ordinary joe a set of carpentry tools and ask him to build you a house. same thing applies to singing.
Isn't that the point of this reaction? If we weren't looking for a technical breakdown, wouldn't we simply just watch the original video?
Plysomack - obviously. my point being is that the reviewer made it sound as if the singer was just utilizing tricks and shrugs it off as if it’s easy ... it is not.
Amen lol
These response videos are supposed to be technical breakdowns. Ken Tamplin demonstrates the techniques as he responds, and makes it clear that to be good, to be great, you have to start with the basics and practice. This clown doesn't.
@@WittyCaMoNinja He's probably envious he never could or will hit those registers. I think he was totally disrespectful and envious. I've seen people who would never listen to metal crying when they did a reaction to this
Geoff Tate is one of the all time greats... that dude could sing his ass off. He was coming here to Pensacola and I was going to see him, but the Rona has now put it off until December...
This "coach" is oblivious and could never touch Geoff Tate.
Ken “Sour Grapes” Lavigne.
The best rock group ever. It doesn't get any better than that. Oh ya take hold.
I think I’ve heard enough of this guy
lol yup. as soon as he said that, I stopped the video
This Coach Has Zero Idea At what what He Doesnt Know ...
What a GOON ,
Geoffe Tate Is THE BEST METAL Vocalist in MANY MANY MANY peoples respect and opinion
TATE is to VOCALS what Steve Vai is to Guitar😎👍
Come on Ken, learn the words. Lets see you give it a shot. Make it looks easy for us.
Iron Maiden Hallowed be thy name live from the 80’s
NO!! That performance is shit. Flight 666 or Rock in Rio Hallowed would be better
A bit jealous perhaps????
" I've heard enough.."? To do what exactly? Reduce his skill to an easy to hold A sound? Yeah - I agree. I've heard enough.
To bad about your parents might like metal a little more I'm a 53 year old black male metal head this band is special and Geoff Tate is top 5 metal singers no question .
By the way jinjer just dropped a new video today . peace ✌️ from Alaska
“ Silent Lucidity” is their most popular song. It shows his low registry
Very rare to hear someone who can sing both lower and higher than I can in the same song. Man had one hell of a vocal range in his prime.
Oh Ken, don't be hating on Geoff's skills and performance. LOL
Those who can't teach.....
Geoff has a naturally low voice he trained and practiced to go so high .
How can you not like this song?
Don't be jealous you can NEVER sing Tate, He is a METAL GOD.. Lets see who lasts longer in history you or him.. BYE FELICIA.
If you don’t get immediate goose bumps, you’re seriously dead inside.
You are the only vocal professional or vocal teacher what ever you call yourself to not be amazed and in awe when he hit that note singing we are one we are children of the night.thats what u call power clean mind blowing.AND U DIDN'T EVEN REACT...ARE U JEALOUS OR JUST NOT GOOD AT YOUR JOB.MAYBE A LITTLE OF BOTH....
So you're basically saying Geoff Tate sucks? Where can I find your platinum hits? I see you're just a measly little vocal teacher.. the saying is that those who can't do teach. I'm assuming your next video is going to show us you going from baritone up into E5 just to prove how simple it is and how much geoff's voice sucks compared to yours right.. I'm waiting!!!
he is using head voice/falsetto, like a countertenor, he is a baritone
This is neither both .
This is mixed voice with obviously chest support and resonance with a larynx technique for the upper stuff .
There s no break between his both chest / upper stuff .
The sound is connected and full in both aeras
That can't be pure headvoice
Falsetto is a disconnected voice with no chords folds vibrating
Falsetto sounds like a ghost voice
There s a misconception .
You can pull that off with that power and prescence in falsetto .
@@Nissardpertugiu your right I should not had said falsetto, because it's really just head voice/M2 production, mixed is not what you think, mix is only a few notes on the passaggio, what Tate is doing is bridging into head voice below his vocal break/passaggio, like a countertenor, the resonance comes from hitting air to the back of the mouth with a rised soft palate and a relaxed larynx, again like a countertenor/ how females to their head voice in Opera, he is a very well trained voice, you can hear it in his openness and roundness, also his use of vowels.
Yep, he has got chuck norris’s vest on and now he is just a “lone wolf” without the band. 🤷🏻♂️
You already said you were sheltered as a teen, so makes sense you couldn't really appreciate that performance. You should dive into more uncharted music that was forbidden to your house. Break free from your parents hold your a grown man now. What you just witnessed was greatness.
From an era when music was still music.
So strange that you skipped so many parts, and seemed to enjoy then be quite disrespectful...such a strange reaction. Almost as if you got distracted by something halfway through. Really odd.
Agreed. This was totally unlike him.
"This sounds like a trained voice." Then, "Oh yeah, now he's dancing around in Chuck Norris' vest (the envious look on your face is classic) then "How is he making that noise?" You've already answered that, and it's far from noise. Interesting that from the beginning of the video you use vocal inflections to demean something you haven't heard yet. Psychologically it's easy to explain in terms of being insecure about someone in your profession who's far better than you. It's fun to watch you mostly just shut up and listen from 2:23 to 2:52. Looks like you're trying to hang on to your ego while this guy is forcing you to admit to yourself that you'll never even be close to being as good of a singer as he is. And you learned this esoteric singing technique the "Other Day?" How long have you been perfecting your craft? I'm sure it's a long, convoluted concept. I noticed your condescending smile and attitude waning as the video progressed. Egos don't stand up well to talent, possibly an uncomfortable realization for you. If you think you've heard enough halfway through the song it's indicative of both your pre-judgement and a short attention span. Sad to hear your parents didn't 'allow' you to listen to rock and metal. Best thing since classical and often better. Good luck.
Wow, as many point out, that's a really underwhelming reaction video! I would rather see a reaction video of this reaction video made by offended Queensryche fans 🙃
I don’t understand why you wouldn’t pull up the lyrics. Everything is available online these days. Now I’ve seen a lot of vocal coach responses to Geoff Tates ability, But what I haven’t seen is a vocal coach show their skills...
No disrespect, this is the first time watching your reactions. I wouldn't suggest you for training. You seem lopsided to genres which could hurt your career as a vocal trainer. My vocal instructor was more into the likes of opera to Bette Midler and Celine Dion. However, she did not pass judgement on any genre. She had a student that wanted to learn how to growl. Death metal if you will. Granted she had only taught anything from opera to pop genres. But she went out of her way to research how to growl. And she taught that student what he wanted. Your clients are probably a bunch of Karen's learning ABBA to Debby Gibson. Or Taylor Swift judging by this reaction and I hate judging. Rest assure this will be the only comment you will get from me, and I hope it detours people from wanting to learn from you. You may have key points that people need, but I'm sure it's limited. Anyone want that really want lessons online. May I suggest Rebbeca Vocal Athlete aka RVA. At least she did the same reaction to this song and discussed on how he may have hit the notes. Very informative without judgement. Yes I plugged another vocal coach. Serves you right for passing judgment on a style than actually talking about how they may have used their techniques. You in my honest opinion are a sham to call yourself professional.
Let me see you belt out.His notes like he does for over an hour when he does a show
If you’re going to do a song, at least listen to the whole song. Don’t feel like you gave this the praise it deserves. This is live, part of a concert over several hours and sounds as good as the studio version. Sorry, I’ve heard enough of…you.👎
Geoff studied opera and has a trained voice. Maybe you should stay with your type of music.
Its a very difficult song to sing, only Geoff Tate can hit those high notes i haven't heard anyone sung those in Karaoke
you're talking about twang. Don't be afraid to talk about it, most of us have visited dozens of youtube vocal coaches, lol. Pharyngeal resonance, yes.
This reaction makes you look like a hater.
8:47 You ruined and skipped the best part.
Nobody has range like rock and metal singers period
I absof*****glutely love this band! Geoff Tate back in the day was untouchable and there has never been a metal band as incredibly unique or talented as Queensryche before or since. Warning is hands down my most favorite album ever and this performance is ON POINT x10!
I’ve watched all the vocal coach channel reviews of this Tate performance and you’re the only one who doesn’t seem to think it’s amazing. You might want to consider watching the Beth Roars review, she does a great job of explaining why this performance is so impressive.
Missed a note?! What a clown.
That's the face a man keeps while watching another man and knowing he'll never possess a tenth of the power to seduce women as him no matter how good he ever sings... ;)
Lol! Dead on!!
Over the decades of touring his voice has taken a hit, he cant hold those high notes for nearly as long ( Which is to be expected with how he sings). But even now he is still a good singer, not as good as in the 80's and early 90's. The only singer I know of that never lost any quality in their voice is Ronnie James Dio.
I honestly couldn't listen to him about 10 years ago, but I checked out a performance of the Empire record from this year (2022) and he's doing wayyy better. I couldn't believe the progress.
He'll never be back to his old form, but for a dude in his 60s, his voice has degraded very little. I believe he credited the pandemic for allowing his voice to heal and supposedly he quit smoking some years ago.
try Queensryche: Silent Lucidity, or Queensryche: Jet City Woman, or Queensryche: Empire...which is still VERY relevent today, or Queensryche: Another Rainy Night...all of Empire album and Operation Mind Crime album were killer
the scary part is that .. this is a metal voice of a 25 year old. Beautiful
I think that this the first time I've actually seen someone's brain melt. I thought he was going into shock...lol
The title should be Vocal Coach MONOLOGUES over Queensryche - Take hold of the flame... Also, GREAT JOB completely ignoring the highest note he sings in this live performance, at the end of the song. GREAT JOB buddy.
He didn't miss on that note!
"YEAH!!!" My sentiments, exactly, when I first heard this song 'way back when'.
From 83 to 87, nobody was above Tate. I mean, "nobody." The guy was doing this consistently from night to night.
I stumbled onto your channel when I saw “vocal coach”. Weak reaction to Geoff Tates vocals and no appreciation for the musicianship. Maybe you should at least look up the band before you react learn a little bit of their background? Lyrics? Open your mind a bit
Wait, wait, wait…you knew Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson but did not know Queensryche and Geoff Tate? That bums me out! LOL! Tate, in 1984, was untouchable. Truly superb. Enjoy!
Listen to the album operation Mindcrime the first one and he brought one of his female opera friends to help him out play Mary and she’s got a stunning voice. Also, the whole album is great.Terrance
“Chuck Norris’ vest” made me LOL. I had to go back to make sure I heard it correctly.
In Ken's defense/to agree with Ken... it is hard work understanding what he's singing about.
He at some points is hitting the note e 5 that's insane dude Geoff Tate is a god period. Don't bash Geoff queensryche we're the best. BELIEVE THAT...
This guy isn't a vocal coach....his reaction is practically no reaction to one of the 4 horsemen of the 80's that being Dio, Halford, Dickerson, and Tate...It's always hilarious watching a reaction video from a so called vocal coach but doesn't make any actual meaningful comments about the vocals he's hearing.....Like another person commented this is an encore song after already singing for two hours. I seen Queensryche live in a tiny club in NYC back in 1986 and believe me Tate is utterly phenomenal!!
Strange,you always recognize what should be recognized and immediately,but not here...I am not an expert but other vocal coaches are and they are all unconditionnaly enthousiast.
