Did anyone else recognize the male background singer? It's the great saxman, Everette Harp. Many people don't know he's quite a vocalist also. In fact, check the 3:40 mark and you'll see his sax in the stand!
I just discovered you the other day. You truely have that healing voice that reaches people at the soul level and gives them hope and reasurrance. As a fellow musician for the past 25 years I have seen many greats and you are one of them!!!
Phil is amazing, I first heard him sing "Music Prayer ofr Peace" on an Ernie Watts album back in the 80's? Would love to see him do a video to that song. Awesome.
Make the faces and keep making the music. I never, ever, get tired of hearing Phil sing. Gives me goosebumps as he moves through the octaves. Awesome voice!
After the first 20 seconds, I feel complete LOL! He accomplished more in those first few moments than most artist can do in a lifetime!!! I repeat just for that...
The entire performance is amazing too!!! I'm 26 yrs old, but I've been up on Perry since about 92-93. Love the music bro!
Phil Perry, (The Montclairs), East St. Louis, Illinois needs you. I'm a former football coach for East Side High. There's still so much talent there, they need to see you and identify with your professionalism. Come back and sing for your home. We love you man!!! This performance is amazing, like all of your greats.
Hello from France! Thank you dear Phil ! Thank you so very much for the wonderlful sensitivity and power of your singing! Won't you come and sing for us, poor frenchies without any such groovy singers ? Fan!
Wow... Hi Phil, many thanks for your visit! I´m happy to see you have fun with the video. The faces are part of your great expression on this song at that evening. Thank you for your wonderful songs and all the best for you.
@PhilPerryTheSinger Phil, I mailed this link to all my friends with "Best singer in the world"' ! You are the best! I actually am looking for this version on CD or DVD for a looooong time. Peace . All the best from Amsterdam (Holland)
That's how you do it.That's one of the greatest openings to a song ever! Were talking about impact! By the way "Just to make you happy" is a great song.One of my all time favorites.
@PhilPerryTheSinger ... You have graced us with your beautiful voice for a long time. Iam forever grateful for this. However, I haven't heard of you coming to the northeast in quite some time. PLEASE COME BACK TO BOSTON .. at least ONE MORE TIME ...
Even though there are many great great singers out there, no one but none "BELTS" out vocally with such ferocity and panache than this dude here..Phil Perry..just wow man..wow!!!
1:54 is a raise your hand and say "THANK YA JESUS" moment for Phil and me!!!!!!!!
Lord have mercy Phil can sang!!!!!! It's gonna be all yours Phil, I swear it.......Thank you.
