    From Ogg@21:4/106.21 to All on Friday, February 12, 2021 20:58:00
    Hello All,

    This little tune is getting fairly frequent air-play on tv.

    Can you can identify this fellow? And no, it's not Cash. He's
    a Canadian. Sadly, this song was written only for a recent
    commercial and therefore it is just one minute long.

    It's a cover of a Sam Cooke song, but no idea who is doing it.

    You get extra points for recognizing that it's a cover of
    SamCooke's song! But even the original is only about 2 minutes
    long.

    The new singer's version was cut down to one minute of music.
    Fans are hoping that he would release an unabridged version.

    He says he's looking into recording a full version.

    The artist did that for the commercial. But he says he's looking

    I had a room mate in the Army who spent the weekends drinking and playing Sam Cooke music. Most of his songs are imprinted in my head still 30 years later.

    It sounded pretty good. It did remind me a bit of Johnny Cash.

    Hello Ogg,

    I'm Canadian and I don't recognize the voice so he's probably come along in the last 20 or so years.. I pretty much stopped listening to newer music/artists as they all sounds the same now.

    I never heard of the guy before either. Apparantly he stayed
    primarily is an accompanying singer and guitarist in other bands
    for his many years. It is only recently that he's ventured into
    solo.

    I've provided his name and link to his facebook page in a
    previous message.

    I share your sense of some music sounding all the same. For me,
    it's in the female pop category. All the young female singers
    emote a whiny squeeky edgey voice. It's pathetic. Even the
    younger male singers: Beber, Jonas, etc.. sing with a airy
    breathy pining sound as if they need to go for crap real bad.

    Not sure what categories you listen too, but some of my favorite tunes/singers are these (and their sound is distinctive and
    different between them all).
