Steve Perry has just released his latest album, ‘The Season 3’ just in time for the holidays. And within the festive songs, fans will discover an unexpected duet: Steve Perry and his late father, Ray Perry. The song he chose was ‘Call Me Irresponsible’, and Perry picked it for a very specific reason. As you can see in the X post he shared recently, Steve’s father used to sing at bedtime. It was an old karaoke cassette that Perry came across that had his father singing the song. Thanks to technology and some impressive editing, the duet was created. Take a listen to a short sample:

“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
