Peter Cox - one of the very few voices in the same league as Daryl Hall: amazing pipes, even now.

[@davidwinn721]

Great comparison.....C-F. Watching Daryl's House episodes 10 years ago and couldn't believe the guy could still belt out the vocals and have most of his range intact. This guy the same....McCartney lost a lot of his high range and raspy high notes in later years.....they all do.

[@pep2st8p64]

[@LetsCatchYourDream]

I love it when the audience can sing the lyrics!!! That's when you know you've done a fabulous job. Hey, the back ground vocalists were really awesome in keeping the tune together!

[@pauljordan4452]

Cynthia, for me a concert is both an opportunity to sing backing vocals or duets and a guitar lesson thrown in. I don't care what others think.

[@MrBdiddypop]

This guys voice is amazing. Not many singers can sound so good after decades. He may have lost the hair but not the vocal chords!
