    I love how impressed she is with his deep voice and he didn’t even drop a single subharmonic in this one 😅 ❤

    This was the first time I saw/heard Geoff. From him I found Voiceplay and I have been hooked ever since! In many of his videos, including this one, it's just him and his wife Kathy there. They do it all.
    What intrigued me from the start is his ability to interact with the other Geoffs. He is amaing!

    Geoff’s wife Kathy is often the only other person there while he’s taping. On this one she provided the camera shake by tapping the camera (at exactly the same point for each ‘Geoff’.)

    If you had the captions on, you'd see Geoff describe the "super dramatic bend to a low F#". Because of his wife's hearing loss, he often puts fun stuff in the captions for his solo work as well as VoicePlay. He borrowed these same tools again from his dad to film Big Bad John.

    You need to introduce your friend to Valhalla calling by voice play with Jeff in it. All I’m going to say is… You need to sit down when you react to this! That’s how I’m going to say.😱😱

    It's not just a really great, catchy tune. It teaches about a specific time in US history, pre-union. Tell Chelle that she needs to do a google dive into coal mining towns of that time period. The miners were not just locked into the jobs, but they had no way to even escape the town or the debt. Not even the debt of their father. There's a reason the song says the man can't 'go' and 'owes his soul'. He can't die because of what would happen to his family if he did. And that his sons would then have to take up his job in the mine to pay off what was owed. But never be able to do so.

      So true. My dad and grandfather had to go to work in the coal mines during the depression as they couldn’t make the mortgage on the farm. My dad was 13 and was considered old enough to go down. The only way they escaped was to go hungry so that they weren’t always in debt.
      When they left the farm (and mining) behind, they moved to a lumber town in California. My grandfather refused to be paid in scrip. As a result he made 10% less than all the others. But by them they had acquired a car and were able to travel to another town to do the grocery shopping. When they retired they had to move because they were living in company housing.
      This was like their entire lives were owned by a cash advance outfit. Loansharking plain and simple.

      @@janetdw Oh, it was even worse than loan sharking.
      The companies often owned the entire land ranging far and wide around the mine. So the miners had to rent their tiny hovels from the company.
      Even if you could somehow scrounge together enough money to build your own wind-torn shack you still couldn't because the company simply didn't allow it.
      The company also disallowed anyone except company owned stores on their land. Meaning every penny spent in them went back to the company, no mattter if dollars or scrip.
      With that practice came extreme price gouging among the shops' customers, ie the miners.
      With the company scrip often being the ONLY wage available at all, you could also not even buy anywhere else.
      So you often had to trade in overpriced wares for dollars or the local currency to even get your hands on a hard currency.
      Horses being the only faster mode of transportation that allowed you to go elsewhere you were still limited by what you could reach within a day or two of riding.
      Obviously, you weren't paid during that time. Meaning, nothing you got could be overly large or heavy, cause a horse is easily overburdened.
      The whole system was an elaborate trap for the miners, keeping them essentially in bondage slavery. If not by name, but by reality.

      @@RustyDust101 Agreed. I didn’t write the whole story. They moved to another common town (lumber this time) but by then my grandfather and the rest of the family scrounged enough to buy a junker and travelled to the closest town for supplies. They couldn’t have a garden as the community housing did not have yards.
      The whole family worked at the mill, including my grandmother who stacked 4x4s on the drying racks in a dress as women weren’t allowed to wear pants. The first “house” they lived in didn’t have a bathroom or running water. Shared “facilities”.
      I was in seventh grade before they started in a place with a toilet, and high school before they had any heat except the wood cookstove. This was in an area that has heavy snowfall each year.

    I agree with you Leon, watching Chelle's face when Geoff hit the really low notes was just fun. 😊🤣
    Yep, closing in on 80 years old, written and recorded in 1946 by Merle Travis, popularized in 1955 by Tennessee Ernie Ford. Geoff did the production and arrangement, his wife Kathy is the production manager.

    Geoff is the only singer I've heard who can sound like three different people in the same breath.
    If you want to hear him go really deep AND really high, check out VoicePlay's "Oogie Boogie's Song."

      That’s a great one, but I’d also suggest this last Halloween cover he did on his solo channel: Jack’s Lament
      It’s a fantastic demonstration of his range and vocal agility

    I'm a Home Fry and Tim Foust fan, but gotta give props to Geoff 😊 but Tim Foust has a deeper and higher range 😊

    • @hwyla4416
      @hwyla4416 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Actually if you count Tim's 'growl' and Geoff's 'subs' they are pretty close to the same. Geoff has recorded down to B0 in Subs several times which I believe is Tim's limit in Growl as well? And Geoff goes WAY up there in falsetto, too. I'm pretty sure both are 5 octaves. This particular song does not have any subs in it. It is all chest voice. And recently ("Whiskey in a Jar") Geoff has recorded a F1 in chest - a new low for him (in chest). Obviously, both of them are lower when they use their preferred techniques.
