    Thank you Gregory Porter for following your dream of singing! Take Me to the Alley is one of the songs that have kept my sanity and peace!

    Thank you for this short background about Gregory Porter. I loved it and am so proud of him. His voice is a mixture of Bill Withers, Nat King Cole, and Donny Hathaway. But I find it fascinating that he found himself and his own voice by not denying the voices he heard but by bringing them out into his own voice. He's an original, and I hope he continues to sing for a very long time. No, everything is not lost as long as singers and musicians like Mr. Porter continue to allow the musical spirit in their hearts to sing through them. Christmas greetings to him and his family.

    I saw him in my hometown Philly,Pa. at the Kimmel Centre in 2019. The last year the world made sense.

    Oh Wow, to link up with the Laws family was a blessing from above. It's beautiful how your mom laid the foundation. It's obvious that you have a beautiful heart to forgive your father, though absent, they can sometimes be the biggest influence in the richness of our character. Everything is divinely orchestrated by God. Praying to attend your live performance, so that it can be scratched off my bucket list someday. ❤ Blessings and Thank you for your contribution of such an art form.❤❤❤

    I traveled all the way from Mexico to London to watch him perform at the RAH this July. He truly has a magnificent voice that has influenced my own style for years. He recently released a Christmas themed album, which I'll be playing lots this Holidays.
    Great video. Keep on the good work!
