Have you heard the Barry White tribute artist? Have you seen the Barry white tribute artist? He calls himself Master-T. Theophilus Marrow is his name. He has a smooth deep sounding bass just like Barry White. And he looks like he could be a twin brother to Barry White. Master-T has his looks, sound, and everything that you loved about Barry White. When he’s singing his songs, you can't tell his voice from Barry’s. You can check Master-T out on YouTube. Just look for the Theophilus Marrow and subscribe.

I'm hoping that Master T will be making his own songs in the future with his Barry White talent. I am hoping he'll become a Grammy Award winner with his bass voice and romantic image.

I'm Gail Nobles, and you’re listening to the Lounge Show Legends. Today’s topic: Master-T as Barry White.

Hi! I’m Gail Nobles. Welcome to Lounge Show Legends. Todays topic: Vel Omarr. The Sam Cooke of Our Time.

Vel truly is the Sam Cooke of our time. Everyone that has heard him knows it. I don’t know anyone that is singing like Sam Cooke in soul music like Vel. Mr. Omarr can sing and sound just like Sam Cooke. He has his own songs like: “How Can I Make You Mine”, “Trouble Blues”, “Still My Love Grows”, & “If I should Get To Heaven” just to name a few.

Vel Omarr has natural singing talent. He’s someone I wouldn’t really call an impersonator. Vel has too much talent. When he sings, it’s really him singing. It’s really his voice. He just happened to sound like Sam Cooke. We need his voice & talent & style in this day and age because Vel Omarr is about what is real in music.

If you have been following Vel on his Youtube channel, you know what he has said. Soul Music is a spiritual thing, and therefore, Soul Music will never die. Vel has said that soul music ain’t dead, and he is proving it. He has a song: Soul Music ain’t dead.

If you’re following Vel on Facebook, last night there was a live interview on him and some of his great music and great covers of the legendary Sam Cooke. The interview was done by Studio Buzz - host “WB”.

We miss Otis Redding. The late and great Otis Redding. Redding had four children and his oldest son is Otis Redding III. When he sings Sittin’ On the Doc of the Bay, he sounds a lot like his father. He also plays the guitar. Otis Redding III has his father’s musical gift and talent. He’s been touring, performing, writing, and arranging since the early eighties according to his bio. Otis Redding III grew even more as a musician and performer touring with his band The Reddings.

Today Otis Redding III still performs at special events across the United States and Europe, keeping his family’s musical heritage alive. To learn more about Otis Redding III, go to otisreddingiii.com.

Hello everyone. Thank you for listening to lounge show legends. It is said that there won’t be another James Brown, but that doesn’t mean that there isn’t anyone else out there like him. James Brown endorsed a man by the name of Tony Wilson. He’s known as the young James Brown.

There is another man whose real name is James Brown. He calls himself King James Brown. Both these guys are tribute artists and pays tribute to The Godfather of soul.

We also have the son of Jackie Wilson whose name is Bobby Brooks Wilson. He’s a lot like his father and is the living legend of his father.

There are so many imitators. I’ve only named out a few. There are some tribute artists that can look and sound so much like the original entertainers. People seem to enjoy them. I enjoy them.

When I first started the Lounge Show, it wasn’t just about tribute artists. It was about talented artists that have the old fashioned music and style. I consider them as legends too carrying on the old style of music with their talent. They were artists that really had a voice to sing.

God has given so many people a lot of talent. There is always somebody out there that is just as good as the best or better. They just haven’t been discovered or couldn’t make it like the ones before them. Great talent is still here, but we need people that will want and recognize great talent. We don’t see many people today like Ed Sullivan and Allen Freed. Those men enjoyed great talent and they recognized great talent. We don’t have Dick Clark’s American Bandstand anymore or Don Cornelius from Soul Train. Those were the days when we got to see all of our favorite singers on television. Today’s Music, Radio, and Television has changed. We’re living in a different era and time. But it’s so great to have those tribute artists to carry on the sound of the past that so many still love.

There is a group out there today called Acapella Soul. They sing and perform hits such as "Stand By Me", The Great Pretender, and "Under The Boardwalk". Acapella Soul is a Doo-wop group. Every song that they sing becomes their very own. The sound of their voices makes most of the music with one bass player. You might see the group singing and putting on a show for subway riders or at a wedding or outdoors at a party. Acapella Soul gets around, and they are available to sing. They are the most in-demaind Doo-Wop group in New York.

To learn more about Acapella Soul, go to acapellasoul.com and check out their CD's for sale. Check out their videos and photos. That's acapellasoul.com. I'm Gail Nobles and you're listening to the Lounge Show. Have a great day.

Abbas Alizada is staring at himself in the mirror. Finally, I look too to see what he see's. I see the look and expression of a Kung Fu legend named Bruce Lee, but Abbas knows that he himself is another man. I look again, and I imagine the reflection of a Kung Fu star accomplished on the movie screen. I imagine a powerful leap and a powerful kick from a man as THE WHITE TIGER.

White Tiger: White Tiger Kung Fu! The Claw!

All of you Kung Fu movie makers out there, if you can't see Abbas Alizada, you're blind. Yes, there's only one Bruce Lee, but he would want us to continue in Kung Fu. He would want us to make more Chinese arts movies, and maybe even create more Kung Fu styles. He sowed the seed. And now, we have Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, Danny Chan, and why don't you give Abbas a try. To contact him, go to abbasalizada.com.

The White Tiger: Abbas Alizada. He'll be waiting.

Song: Hound Dog by Elvis Presley

Right now you're hearing Elvis Presley looking back. But we can also enjoy a new Elvis today name Cody Ray Slaughter.

Cody said, (voice actor) "You know Elvis Presley. Everybody knows him. I'm from Arkansas, and kind of got the tone. I like 1956..... the early stuff. Elvis changed so much throughout the years kind of inventing himself. Something about those early years. They're real special."

Voice actor singing: I'm in Love. I'm all shook up.

To me, Cody Ray Slaughter's hairdo, voice, looks, and dance is the same as Elvis. He's very amazing. It is amazing seeing Cody on a different stage in a different time and place as Elvis. Mr. Slaughter's stage is like magic. It's like seeing him step out of a time machine when he steps on stage to bring back an Elvis Presley show. We can see a brand new Elvis in brand new ways with the same charisma and style. Maybe in the future, Cody Ray Slaughter can bring brand new songs using the style of Elvis Presley. Why not? He's got Elvis down pat. The only thing that's needed is great songwriters like Elvis had to write the hits. People still love Elvis. He won't ever be forgotten, and Cody is helping us remember him.

I'm Gail Nobles and today's topic is Cody Ray Slaughter as Elvis. To find out more about Cody, go to codyrayslaughter.com.
