Outstanding.

Robert McFerrin was a great singer and a truly exceptional artist. In a more just world with talent like this he should have been ultra famous. What a waste of a great American talent.Racism limited his chances. Who can say this man was not one of the most incredible voices of his day?

I was just looking at his entry in wiki and it is mentioned that he was considered "underrecorded." He didn't make many recordings, his career at the Met was relatively short. According to Wiki, he didn't believe he had much job security.
holy crap! what a voice o_o
i wish there were more recordings of him on youtube

Robert McFerrin was an exceptional talent in an era that also had Leonard Warren, Robert Merrill, Robert Weede and a young Cornell MacNeil. I am so pleased to see this video to help keep the memory of real singing alive! And to think today that Placido Domingo is singing Rigoletto.....vergonia
