Backing Vocals

Bowie always puts a real effort into getting his backing vocals sounding great on his albums.

    It's a pity Bowie doesn't take the same care with the lead vocals.

      I agree. He is rubbish. Him and yon Springsteen bloke. And Neil Young. Rubbish.

      I like Warren Zevin though. I think Jackson Browne does some backing vocals on his early material? Need to check.

    Tom Petty & Mike Campbell doing backing vocals for Steve Winwood singing Gimme Some Loving at RAH. Superb.

      Freddie? Let's give Freddie the benefit of the doubt, and assume Michael wrote the song before Freddie became infamous.

      If you want Elvis, take a deep breath and try again.
