I hear that TtT.

No two voices are alike. I am not a trained singer, although I have an OK voice. Took three lessons from a voice teacher in 1965 (NYC) to learn how NOT to strip my voice, took his lessons to heart and have had little trouble since.

I met Tommy Makem back at that time, and yes his voice was beautiful. He was also a very nice guy in person. IMO, some people just have the pipes. I envy those people.

You may actually be correct if poor Axl had been exposed to folk music rather than rock. I think he perhaps would have also been a happier person,more peaceful.

I can't think of any suggestions to the question but there are quite a few Tommy Makem videos on this YouTube channel :)
