Tongue in cheek above, serious here. This is how we describe Dan Milner in the liner notes for Billy O'Shea in our soon to be released CD

We learned "Billy O'Shea" from the singing of the Dan Milner of New York City.   Dan may very well be the finest singer of songs in this genre today.

Dan is a scholar, a performer, a wonderful singer, and most importantly a wonderful friend.

Bert, I agree with you, in the main. I think that the hallmark of a truly great singer is that they sink into the song with integrity and sincerity. These are the singers that can take a great song that you have heard so many times that you are sick of it, and still make you love it like the very first time you heard it. Dan never just "sings" a song. In his mind he IS the song, he IS the author. He understands that one our obligation is to do justice to the yarn being told, or the feelings being expressed.

I am exposed to many fine, some even great, singers. None are more talented than our Dan Milner.
