Online VOCAL DEMOs
EVERY NOTE on songs on this list PERFORMED AND WRITTEN BY ARCHURE.
The first 2 samples: LONG LOAD TIME WARNING: MP3's can take 15 mins to load with a 4800 baud setting. These DEMOs were done with MP3 files, which are mostly short in duration, due to the imense file size of MP3 Files (much larger than MIDI files, which have no vocal capabilities), thus MP3 files are long to load. These vocal tracks will be redone and improved.

ARCHURE is a Tenor (2nd Tenor or low Tenor, but a Tenor)
Choir Directors and Professors have always stuck Archure in the Bass section (1st Bass or higher Bass), and then wondered why Archure cant sing a low "A".
Thats because Archure has a near perfect Tenor Range, no more, no less, just a bit over 2 octaves C to D while the official Tenor range is C to A (slightly less than 2 octaves offically required); but due to the "Timbre" or bass like quality of Archure's voice, he has (in the past) been stuck trying to sing Bass (out of his range, and thus has to change register), and then people wonder why Archure gets confused. A Bass is require to sing way below B all the way down to a low G, were so sorry, Archure can always hit a low D, and a low C if he is relaxed, Achure is a low Timbre 2nd Tenor (cant sing the specialty high notes sometimes required for 1st Tenor). In college, Professors Merick & Doctor Krasic often stoped everyone, singling out Archure with "Mr Holley, Mr Holley, please sing me a low B please Mr Holley; can you sing me a low B Mr Holley, please" or "Mr Holley, that was very beautiful singing, but it isn't what Bernstien wrote Mr Holley, sing me a low B please, Mr Holley, a low B". (because Archure was (is) a Rock musician, not a Jazz musician; you have to understand the politics of College Music, the Music department is run by Jazz and Classical musicians, and Jazz musicians tend to take a great disrespect towards Rock, which is an undue shame. Archure loves to listen to Jazz, Archure doesn't put it down, but Archure was born to rock. Chuck Mangione liked Archure't attempts at Jazz guitar on Chuck Mangions demo tape, but other Jazz musicians tend to be very critical). Jazz is so open minded, but most jazz musicians are very narrow minded (so free, yet so uptight). {note: at the same time, realize that many Country & Western musicians are put off, taken a back, by Archure's Black (Afro Amr) riffs (guitar, drums, keyboards, vocabulary), instilled into his fibre and being, thats the way he grew up, not in the deep south; Archure grew up in Hollywood and north of S.F.; many southerners, although initially impressed, soon say "thats enough of that, can't have that here, get him out of here", thus Archure is not headed for Nashville, its not that Archure can't or dosen't groove with C&W (Archure loves Bluegrass and Texas style Western), it's just that these Black (Afro Amr) riffs just keep slipping out, can't hide it}
