His concert was interesting. For me, growing up in the 70's his albums were part of the soundtrack to my teens. I can remember to this day some good times in my friends car listening to his music. But his voice today is completely shot. It is mid range and hoarse. I knew that going in.. But when he came out, 30 lbs overweight with a short haircut, and started performing, his passion for the music, his enthusiasm infected us all and the whole crowd except the dude next to me, spent the entire concert or most of it, on our feet jamming to the classic songs. So I would rather hear the flaws in a performers voice, than a lip sync version of an artist I admire. I learned that with Gordon Lightfoot. I went to see him in Austin 2 years ago, and the rich melodic voice I grew up listening to was just a shell of itself. But I loved it.
