FunkCity quotes:
'Unique Voices you either like or don't like':
David Clayton Thomas
Michael McDonald
Doug Mallory (obscure but from Canada's Dr. Music)
'These guys swallow their words uniquely enough to create their own "sound".
Just don't try to pick out the lyrics! ;-) Ha!'

Thank You Funk City - I took the opportunity to make a thread of this because there are some note worthy voices out there that you either like/love/or are in awe of. You have listed a few, and I agree with them, and I like all three of those guys voices.

Some other folk who have unique and distinctive voices 'that stand out in a crowd' are:

Gladys Knight
Luther Vandross
Michael Bolton - (I can take him or leave him)
James Ingram
Ray Charles
Smokey Robinson
Eddie Kendrick
Levi Stubbs
Dennis Edwards
David Ruffin
Maurice White
Philip Bailey
Aretha Franklin
Prince


More later as I think...I want other folk to give it a 'whirl'...

Peace and acknowledgement to you Funk City,
DyvaNaye

You know S-S on July 31st I will be at the Soul-Patrol convention. It would be a BLAST if you and Jimmy could show up...I would love to have the extreme PLEASURE of announcing yours and Jimmy's arrival...'oh to dream...'!

Hi Dyva;
That would be great but I think we'll be in L.A. doing a number of things. We'll be at the Long Island Jazz Festival in Oyster Bay on August 6th. So thats a tough time, Jimmy will need to rest up in between. Too bad it wasn't the end of June when we're in Irvington, N.J. with some time to spare. Thanks for the invitation though D,N.

Unfortunately I cant be involved with planning the event...that is another story and possible controversy...lol.... but I was a wish. Nice to know it would have been a consideration on you part. Send me your email again, I will send you
the flyer and agenda about the event anyhow.

Hug and squeeze that 'singing his butt off'husband of yours for me, and tell him I cant WAIT to meet him! (more than my heart can stand!)

Got my film ready, already!

Hugs,
DyvaNaye

1Wicked;
Yes, all of those things above and more, for real.

Also David Ritz's baptismal at Mabel John's church on July 25, maybe my own too.

House hunting will take place on the border of Santa Monica & Venice Beaches.

More than likely the last two weeks in July for "our" birthdays. Perhaps a "gig" on Jimmy's birthday July 17, we're looking at the "House of Blues" (the last time Jimmy performed there, half the celebrities in Hollywood came out for the show!...LOL), and we're also looking at 3 or 4 other venues.

I'll keep you posted Wicked. I can't wait to get back to L.A.!!
