Jeffrey Foskett unveils Voices, which could possibly be his last album as a singer
-- out Nov. 22 and premiering exclusively below -- may be his last, at least as a singer. And if that proves to be the case he feels like he's going out on a high note.
The longtime Beach Boys and Brian Wilson collaborator was diagnosed with Anaplastic thyroid cancer during early 2018. Surgeries and treatments have robbed him of one of his vocal cords and, essentially, the versatile voice with the soaring upper register that helped add authenticity to any harmonic situation he encountered.
"God gave me such a beautiful voice, and I really did use it to honor him and to sing my best at every single performance," Foskett tells Billboard. "It's killed me to walk off some of those performances knowing I just didn't sound very good. So when I listen back to these songs I cut before my voice really went downhill, it's like, 'Wow, I wish I could do that again.'" came to life as a kind of accident.
"It's interesting because it's songs I've always wanted to cut. This is like my mother's milk, these songs. I knew them all, just pat. I've been listening to them for years -- singing some of them, too. I don't think I had the words in front of me or anything. I just sang them and was fortunate that pushed the red button.".
"The same with 'Adios'; Glen Campbell released it before he passed away and I was there when Brian was cutting the backgrounds on Linda Ronstadt's version. I didn't want to put any harmonies on mine because Brian had already done that for Linda, so that particular song has zero harmonies, just some doubling. It's all just my way of doing these songs I really love." comes out, Foskett considers his future prospects to be "a good question.
