I don't have the environment in the house right now to hear who he introduces in that (wild kids), but I'll be on the headphones here later in the day and can try and listen again. I have no clue if it'd be the same guy from the "Shake" sessions...

He is definitely one of my favorite singing voices, and I do believe this dude copies that style of singing rather well:
"inimitable" as some say...
'course, his drummer is usually a machine...
