That's odd they usually at least do one song. They've had Arnel singing for like 10 years or so and you can't tell the difference. Then again the Hall isn't really held in high regards by older groups and singers after seeing so many passed up in favor of pop and rap acts.
It might be for the best, half the time when a band gets inducted things get worse when they try and perform together. I know Blondie ran into an issue when a former band member expected to play but wasn't invited to.
He actually did a couple songs with a tribute band sometime last year IIRC. Nothing was wrong with the voice from what they said.
Also read an article a year or so prior to that where the interviewer heard a number of the songs he was working on and said he was just totally blown away with how good they were. Steve's response was they weren't ready for the public still.
Seems to be an indication of over-perfection or something. I'd love to hear the album, but at the current pace, i'm not going to be putting any money on it happening anytime soon.
Steve "The Voice" Perry is fine and recorded an album...but not ready to release it yet. I'm still waiting for "Boston" to release theirs I'm kidding of course.
Perry's voice has aged and he cannot hit the high notes as he use to (normal with age). As for the bad blood between him and the band, it's been going on for quite a long time.
Who's right, who's wrong...it's impossible to say anymore:rolleyes
