The whole Postmodern Jukebox project is amazing. They make fantastic covers. All of the singers and musician are absolutely amazing.

Morgan is a trained opera singer graduated at the prestigious Juilliard music school in New York City. However after graduating she realized her heart was more Aretha Franklin than Maria Callas so to speak. She's easy on the absolutely best female vocalists there is today!

I had the good fortune to see Morgan in concert last year (not with PMJ). Tiny woman, huge voice that filled the venue. One of the top voices on the planet. Her Aretha covers are fantastic. Highly recommend her duets with Marc Broussard on "Do Right Woman" and Haley Reinhart on "Dear Prudence."

saw the blond on the right in that video solo in concert 6/21/24(Morgan James). She is FANTASTIC!!!!! The soul and power of Aretha Franklin. Treat yourself to see her if she's playing within a two hour drive, it will be worth it.

Harri, You’ll LOVE the solo Morgan James as well!!! Her “Ain’t No Way”(Aretha Franklin cover) kzbin.info/www/bejne/i4CkomeFip5pp5o has the soul and power of Aretha!!! Saw her in concert June 2024. Best singer/songwriter I've ever seen. Her Soul originals album "Memphis Magnetic"(2023) and R&B originals album "Nobody's Fool" (2021) are Outstanding!!!! She sang in 4-5 Broadway musicals, then started her solo career 2013. She writes most songs with her guitarist/producer/husband Doug Wamble.

Oh,my. That is going to take some time. IDK what brought you to that haircut, but although I will say it looks good, so did the last. Absolutely not related to your content,which is consistently great. As is PBJ, and Morgan. Rock on brother. Almost said Haley (oops) for those who enjoyed this, you might want to try this couple from Brazil. They call themselves FLEESH. They have covered a lot of songs, as well as doing their own thing. As a person who has been listening to music since 1963,I'm impressed by their musicality and taste. Over past 10 years, they have released tribute albums to glHenesis, Pink Floyd, Marilyn, and Renaissance as well as their own music. Check out their channel!

4:58 I've seen Morgan perform live 5 times now. At one of the Meet and Greets, I asked her if she had ever heard from Steven Tyler or anyone representing him. I thought I saw an almost imperceptible change in her face (disappointment?). She said no but defended him by saying so many people cover that song and they're pretty busy people. So if he has heard it, he hasn't offered his opinion to her. Anyway, I've been a BIG fan of Morgan since 2014 and I absolutely LOVE her!!! Morgan studied opera at Julliard (her classical training is why she has those big pipes) and has performed on Broadway (Motown, The Musical, Godspell, The Addams Family and others). Under the wing of Berry Gordy Jr. (of Motown Records), she was signed under Epic Records and released two albums. She decided to break out on her own and started Hedonist Records LLC as an Indy. She has her own band and is married to the guitar player, Doug Wamble. If I may suggest, check these other covers from Morgan out as well. All About That Bass, Meghan Trainor. This is where I first discovered Morgan James kzbin.info/www/bejne/l33Ri2SEhtJlq80 Call My Name, Prince - Prince rarely gives permission to record his songs but within minutes of hearing Morgan's cover, he said yes kzbin.info/www/bejne/epnFhGZ4e9mLes0 Maps, Maroon 5 - I'll be honest here. I hadn't heard Maroon 5's Maps before so I went and listened to it. IMO, Morgan does it so much better! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpiykJ-uic2WZ68 Can't Stand the Rain, Ann Peebles - LOVE this, one of my favorites. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKachZV-l7qKeqM Ain't No Way, Aretha Franklin - Another top favorites of mine. Morgan holds a note for an amazing 24 seconds @ 1:42 into the video. I get frisson every time I hear it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaLaaoagdr57e8k Who Wants to Live Forever, Queen - kzbin.info/www/bejne/bYXXqWOdfbCZj5o Calling You, Jevetta Steele - Like a lot of her songs, frisson every time. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXWlkp2Ni6aYfKM Back Door Santa, Clarence Carter - I know, it's a Christmas song - sorta. But it's so fun! kzbin.info/www/bejne/i3-Vco1obdJ-m9U She does more than just covers, much more. Here's one of my favorite originals by her: Reckless Abandon - Morgan performs all the vocals in this song so you may want to listen to it over and over to catch it all. In fact, she does all the vocals for the entire Reckless Abandon album. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmnIZK1nms2Nnbc Just for the fun of it, here's one that I recorded the first time I saw her live in concert at The Dakota in Minneapolis, MN doing the same song, Reckless Abandon kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHLKioSgbMd1m9U And here's some more originals. You Thought Not (Spike Lee uses this song on his series She's Gotta Have It.) kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnSokqWDidB6bJo Give You Up kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIK8p4d4oLyejZo Hunter kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5nPkIWqqslpbdE Morgan is one of the hardest workers in the industry. For example, Morgan dreamed that she performed Jesus Christ Superstar as Jesus and Shoshana Bean was Judas. She decided to put on an entire female production of JCS and started hand selecting some of the best vocalists, performers, musicians, producers and engineers in the business - all females. She put on a live concert at the Highline Ballroom and also recorded and released the entire score. Check out Gethsemane, you WILL be impressed! kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKbUh515Zb2loac So yeah, I'm a Morgan fan. Big time. Check her out at www.morganjamesonline.com/ BTW, since you've done a reaction to PMJ/Morgan James' cover of Dream On, expect to be inundated by Haley Reinhardt fans saying, "Do Creep next". They flock to these reactions like clowns to a circus. Note: I'm not dissing Haley AT ALL. She's extremely talented and a wonderful singer in her own right.
