Have you been able to go to the tour he is doing right now/recently? I went to his Dallas show, and it was great! I'm a newer fan who was introduced to his work by my dad, and it was convenient that the concert was about his first two albums as they were the ones I am most familiar with right now.
@@droge192 Nothing before nor after will ever come again and that's what make's it so special (to me at least). Not even the follow up delivered this vibe.
He just finished a tour in celebration of that album. That album's producer, Trevor Horn, played bass on the tour. I saw the show in St. Louis, Missouri USA. I've seen Seal 6 times, in 5 cities over the last 28 years. Every single show was memorable, for different reasons. Talking to the crowd he explained "This isn't about me standing up here singing a song, or trying to sell a record. This is about us sharing an experience."
Performance is 90% when it comes to a live recording. Mastering for the studio. I was at this concert and everything you hear (including that tantalizing delay on his vocals was present there and then. Mastering has likely just been compression and limiting to raise the average level.
Honestly...how good is SEAL. I mean we listen to all his very well know performances & they're absolutely 'FANTASTIC' & then we listen to his lesser known performances & they are equally 'fantastic' He's a purity in voice, persona & charisma. He's a gift & a genuine lovable man that's found his meanings in life. SEAL...you are loved for the pleasure you give to people, the World Over.
Just to add to how uniquely talented this man is - did anyone else notice that he is playing guitar "upside down"? It IS a left-handed guitar but it's strung for a right-handed player; he must've learned on a right-handed guitar which was simply flipped over, without reversing the strings. For me, a sign of a truly great song is when you can strip it right back, perform it acoustically, and it still sounds great. I've been playing some of his songs for years and they truly fall into this category. Legend.
My band when I was playing professionally around my hometown did hard rock covers of plenty of Seal. The songs are just that well written. Btw, they absolutely kick ass as hard rock arrangements. Fun as fuck to play, too.
Hands down 'The Church Recordings' of Seal performing " Whirlpool are Uniquely the Best of Seals fresh levels of writing. (oh, and his Duet w/Donna Summer... ) priceless, to watch him 'mesh' so easily w the greats.. 🙏 God is love
This is sooo good! The whole album is amazing. I saw him in Berkeley years ago when he first came out, it was amazing! I got the albums, the guitar books.. I looove his music.
A stage full of gifted musically talented people and WOW what a composition. Seal, rock's Left handed better than most Regular handed musicians 🤔 He's obviously, melted and mesmerized many audiences before. He and they, as a group, kick my Big Ass.
Would of never found this magic without a friend that is gone too soon. He told me eventually it was a sign of a diminished intellect to listen to the same music overand over🤣 I would give anything to play this one more time with him😢 Yansi Casis
Seal's debut in 1991 might just be my favorite 90s album, and I'd love for him to tour that entire album in sequential order.

I don't live in a place where Seal would tour sadly. if you have some links to this tour I'd appreciate :)
It's one of my favourite albums of all time. Mystical, magical and tears to the heart of the soul.

To me, that concert IS his best one because every performance IS better than the recording. High level of mastering

Just such a pure performer,his voice has just got that soul. Nice and smooth powerful with that nice little huskyness on the end. Pure beauty.

What a voice... Seal is one of the greatest singers ever
Better than the recording! Hard to say for a lot of artists.
One of my favourite songs ever!

I, for one would like to hear these versions you speak of...!

He writes such beautiful melody's .. but his lyrics are pure nonsense
yeah, that is kinda true. Great voice and all but, yeah...
The words are open to your own private interpretation. To some jibberish, to others magic!
@@Eguys i can agree with you dont on that
sledger2003 Pity you can’t relate to the lyrics, we can.
@@ehimenoseghale2642 Eh .. "Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey" ... right ...
