Steve Perry former front man for Journey has been working on a Christmas album called The Season 3, features five newly recorded songs including “Jingle Bell Rock”, “Let It Snow.” And A duet with his late father called, “call Me irresponsible”. Perry stumbled upon a touching gift from long ago a karaoke cassette of his dad, Ray Perry, singing that he sent Perry for Christmas back in 1993.
“Using technology, we pulled his voice off the cassette and recorded beautiful music around him. Once that was done, an unfulfilled dream of singing with my father was now possible,” Perry said. “You see, mom and dad divorced when I was 7, and dad and I never saw much of each other after that.”
Here is steve Peery’s post from X, you can hear the full song below.
“My father, Ray Perry, was a singer and when I was a child he would sing to me at bedtime. I recently found a karaoke cassette of my dad singing that he sent me back in 1993 for Christmas. The one song that touched me the most was, 'Call Me Irresponsible'. His voice was lovely." pic.twitter.com/g5TynC9gPN
