When I saw The Who at Fenway Park five years ago, Roger Daltry thanked Massachusetts General Hospital and a Boston doctor for restoring his singing voice.
Dr. Steven Zeitells had developed groundbreaking restorative laryngeal techniques, and operated on Roger just before our 2010 Super Bowl appearance. He was here in the audience tonight, somewhere, and without question would have been pleased by this stadium-full of happy fans. “He saved my voice.”

Julie Andrews famously, and tragically, lost her singing voice in 1997 from a botched vocal cord procedure at New York’s Mount Sinai Medical Center. Julie later came to Boston and met with the same specialist that Roger Daltry saw.

Julie’s familiarity with Boston goes back a long time. Fifty-three years ago, she made this reference to Filene’s Basement that was lost on Dick Cavett.
