"I will admit however that I am still suspicious of the artists who tend to lip synch at most or all of their live performances. I remember the Milli Vanilli scandal in the very early 90's when it was revealed that performers lip synched to vocals that were recorded by other artists and can't help but wonder if this kind of thing still goes on."

Actually much worse things are going on to cover up the lack of talent of some popular performers. Some of the worst of these offenses are pitch correction, and synthisized harmony parts added in on separate tracks. There was a time when do-wop singers were expected to have near perfect harmonization and most of the time they did. Now we hire one singer and the harmony parts are actually the same singer with pitch changed harmony parts put in on separate tracks. Singers who can not sing anything in tune needn't worry either. We now have pitch correction to come to their aid. Difficult rhythms? No problem! Keyboard players can create any vocal or instrumental rhythm part. No talented keyboard player? No problem! Computer regulated drum machines take the place of talented musicians. Insufficient range? No problem! We can get you up an octave in a heartbeat! Can't make it across the country for a particular recording date? No problem! You can record in any city you happen to be in, and we'll send the files to the engineer. It's no wonder that kids nowadays have no standards. They have only perfectly compiled music to listen to. Soul, talent and musical ability are all now considered to optional skills. We need a marketable personality and a good song writer - that's it.
