• ... that Shlomo Carlebach-style singer Yehuda Green once performed on stage with his long-deceased mentor?

• ALT1:... that Hasidic singer Yehuda Green, who performs in the style of legendary musician Shlomo Carlebach, has been called "more Carlebach than Carlebach"?

• New enough, long enough, QPQ done, etc. Good to go. The one thing I would suggest nom consider is tweaks to the hook -- first; delete "long-deceased". It makes it sound as though his mentor was long-dead during the performance. Also, I think that "once" is not needed, as it appears it happened more than once.

• @Epeefleche: thanks for the review. I don't quite understand what you want me to change here. Shlomo Carlebach died in 1994 and the on-stage duet was held in 2011. That accounts for "long-deceased". I'm not aware of any other times that Green did such a thing, so I don't understand what's wrong with "once". Truly, I was just trying to be hooky with the first hook. If you object, ALT1 is a more sedate option. Yoninah (talk) 19:37, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

• Ah -- I see. I was focused on the prior mention in the article of him singing with SC while he was alive. And I see ... there is only one mention of him performing with him in a virtual manner. And I understand the desire to make it hooky. Works. Good to go. Epeefleche (talk) 21:19, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
