And remember too there are different degrees of technique. Someone can get away with having ok technique. And some people figure out how to work around it
etc. But just because this is the case doesn't mean they are doing things right. Like John Foreman does use compression but its not exactly right, and I
wouldn't copy what he does, but he does have that squeeze. Make sense?
Yup! taking what's right from other singers and applying it to how it suits your voice?
Just because someone doesn't explain things in your terms doesn't mean they are not a good vocalist.
Haha I'm NOT a big fan of terminology at all... but I was kind of expecting he'd be able to explain the SENSATION of that crossing the voice over to
his pianist friend rather than just give him "project from the stomach".
But anyway, I believe there was a quote from the Richard Miller book about good sailors being able to tie knots, yet they can NOT explain in coherent terms how
those knots are tied, so I suppose the same applies to some gifted vocalists who've had no formal training.
