"Do the Bird" (Download)
This 1963 hit by the incredible Dee Dee Sharp holds a special place in my heart, as it was released the same year I was born! I loved working on this song with the talented singers in ‘FOUR’. The group’s two women, Malathy Villar (alto) and Anne Stone (soprano) brought their powerful chest voices to the mix, perfectly supporting Wayne Dixon’s soulful lead vocal as the bass. To this day, Wayne remains one of the best soul singers I’ve ever had the pleasure of hearing, and this recording only begins to capture his brilliance. When Wayne sang lead, I took on the bass part. Though I wasn’t a true bass, I put my heart and soul into every note! The fifth song on my new album, Vintage A Cappella.
