I KEEP FORGETTING (MICHAEL McDONALD) cover by HSCC

[@jamesyoung1012]

12 months on and still a breath taking performance….just pure joy HSCC!

[@barryhetherington9816]

Praises to the drummer Mario! You played that kick drum phrasing exactly the way Jeff Porcaro did on the original!

[@philnerd8836]

Praises to Steve the percussionist too ❣️

[@JerryFochtmann]

The keyboardist doing the backup vocals on this (Darren Mullan) deserves special recognition and applause. Phrasing is completely tight with lead vocalist. Tone is consistent in a very hard range (the pitch where most people guys are breaking between full voice and half-voice or falsetto, yet he controls it wonderfully). And doing a superb job of filling in that unique Michael McDonald vibe/tone... I’ve never seen it done so well. Of course, I agree with all the other positive comments about this band (groove, pocket, vocalist, sweet guitar solo, etc), but let’s applaud Darren on this one too.

This video just popped up on my feed again. After 4 years, I still get chills when Sarah sings. What a freaking killer arrangement and performance by the whole band. These musicians helped the world heal during/after COVID.

[@marktaylor9906]

I didn't think a woman's voice could carry this song. Boy, was I wrong. How is it that this woman is not known all over the world? Her voice is powerful, clear and effortless. And her passion shows through. Don't you love it when everyone in the band appears to be having a great time and they make great music? I want to go to Aus to see these guy in person.

Wa(o)ke up and grow some balls, stop making issues where there are none, It's your government that needs your devoted attention or are you wokers okay with the so called "co*id camps" and the lockdowns and the mrna experiment gen therapy?

My first impression when I saw a female in the thumbnail was that this definitely could work.

Yes Great Mix. Engineer is top notch. Everything is in the mix. The drummer even played the 32 note bass drum riff that Jeff Porcaro did on the original. Great bass grove! Super tasty keyboards. Percussion perfect. Changing to shaker and really locking in. Not just playing a pattern. Super tone on the Guitar and great solo. Just the right amount of taking it out a bit!! Vocals are world class! Backing vocals perfect doubling effect! This is a band I would love to see Live. Keep it going!!
