The first bonnet video stopped at 1988 where I thought his voice started to give out but boy was I wrong! Low notes are scarce though and those I have here shows that he was definitely not a baritone.1. A passage from the Forcefield song In a perfect world where graham sings many D3:s and a few Bb2:s, 1990.2. A B2 from High school angel from the great old school rock´n roll album No bad habits from 1978.3. A few A2:s from Won´t you join me from the same album.4. A G#2/A2 from an elvis cover, Don´t. Graham can sing like a crooner as well! The album is Here comes the night from 1990.5. A very whispery G2 from All night long live 1980 with Rainbow.6. And now the big surprise, an A1 from Cajun Pink from his solo CD Underground from 1996. Could be a studio trick though since he´s never been close to this low pitch at any other time as far as I know.7. Time for the upper register, a C5 from Taz Taylor song Haunted from 2006.8. A few C#5:s from Mr. Genius from the Anthem 2000 CD.9. A few D5:s and a falsetto A5 from song Killer from the solo CD The day I went mad from 2001.10. A nice E5 from Taz Taylor song Mr Happy.11. A strong F5 by graham from song What she says off Here comes the night.12. A few sung F5:s and a short G#5 from 1975 song Dreams from a movie soundtrack Three for all, this track can be found here on youtube.13. A strained but powerful F#5 from Anthem song Blinded pain followed by a few short G#5 and A5 screams.14. A strong G5 from solo song Whiplash off the Underground CD.15. A F#5 and then an A5 from Blackthorne song Hard Feelings, 1993.16. Another A5 from the same song, notice the painkiller voice bonnet adapted for this album. I don´t like the tone of it but it gets him a few notes extra on the top.17. Another A5 from the same CD but this time from song Breaking the chains.18. And a B5 from the same song!19. A stronger and more sustained B5 from solo song Model Inc off the The day I went mad CD from 2001!20. And lastly, to crown it all off, a soprano C or rather 2 of them with an A5 in between in a OOH falsetto style. The C6:s sound like full voice though. From Breaking the chains.Enjoy the power of Graham Bonnet! [ More Detail ]

From his 1971 album Songs For Beginners.Lyrics:When your love has moved awayYou must face yourself and sayI remember better daysDon't you cry `cause she is goneShe is only moving onChasing mirrors through a hazeNow that you know it's nowhereWhat's to stop you coming homeAll you got to do is go thereThen you'll really realize what's going downYou went to a strange land searching for a truthyou felt was wrongThat's when the heartaches startedThough you're where you want to beYou're not where you belongWhen your love has moved awayYou must face yourself and you must sayI remember better daysDon't you cry `cause she is goneShe is only moving onChasing mirrors through a haze [ More Detail ]
