Thought I'd heard every Righteous Brosong. KILLER version of Summertime that is

just knocking me out. LIVE. No auto tune. Bobby Hatfield had amazing pipes AND tremendous soul for that day, heck....for ANY era.

used in Ghost. Performing live he plays more with his unmatched range and turns it into art. Kinda like Freddie and Lambert.

Enjoying the reach back. 😍

Especially when he bites his lip at the end.

You’re right about “perfection”. Hundreds have recorded and performed this song, but, not even Elvis comes close to owning it like Bobby Hatfield.

Been around music biz most of my adult life and thought I’d heard just about all of it, especially the greats. This vocal blew me away.
