"Since then, almost nobody ever takes the chance of singing vocal hamony live."

Click link below...... Apparently pop singer Ana Torroja didn't get the memo, in a concert in Mexico City, in front of roughly 300,000 people.......... Her voice was shot to boot.

(If there is anything that amazes me, it's people unable to distinguish a pre-recorded vocal from a live microphone feed.)

"It amazes me how the average non-classical, non-jazz listener fails to realize all of this, even when I've taken them literally by the hand in these so-called concerts, and had the mixing engineer reveal to then how it's all done."

It's not just non-classical/non-jazz listeners...... I hear it from just about all tastes in music.........

"People continue to disbelive, and in some cases react with anger and violence. I've had that kind of reaction even here, on the pop boards. It's almost like religion to people. I don't get it."

I've had such reactions on the general music board...........

If the music is performed by their favorite artists, they'll be militant........ Heck.... I was even warned recently not to bash certain types of music at someone's house.....................

The sad part is I've observed many music critics backing down in recent time....... A big reason why a lot of the dreck today is accepted and promoted as artistic marvels. The standards are lowered for future artists....... If doing it the easy way wins accolades, hard work will forever be replaced by modern technical enhancements. For the critics are afraid to cite what I personally think is obvious.
