Not a professional sound system, not the greatest accoustics(obviously), but a Hell of a job singing this one! Perfect timing and on key, and sung in the style it was meant to be sung in. Don't listen to wannabes who think they know something, he did a bang up job for singing in a livingroom with a piano and no effects(reverb)! Nice!!!
Am I out of turn if I say I like this guy's voice better than Paul Robeson's? I actually think Paul Robeson sounds a little forced. Dad here sounds like he's more at ease singing the song.
When I first looked at this I thought it was a joke until I heard this guys voice...do not know ho he is but what a magnificent voice. Man this I could listen to all night:)
True he is very good it's also true that he is not deep enough to be a baritone but he is fairly good, but lol part of the song says "let me go away from the white man boss" ,it just shows we are almost over the stigma of racism and lingering bitterness of slavery, bravo my man ! you're ok in my book
great! That was extremely entertaining.

@ToddSonoma As he's your dad, we'll let your comment & admiration pass as understandable love & hero worship. No one beats dad of course! ; )

He's a bari-bass, only a true basso is comfortable at low F and below. Very nice voice and wellcrafted song

Very nicely done. He seems to strain with the lower range some.. but their arent many who can go that low.
