What surprises me when I hear Gord in concert is that while his voice has definitely changed, it's not only suited to his later songs, like Painter, but his early stuff as well. His work from the late 70's to mid 80's has been adapted somewhat, and his voice is stretching in places to do the job. But his 60's and early 70's songs seem perfectly well suited to the changes his voice has gone through. Interesting. Has anyone else noticed this?
