true, i don't like his GroundHog voice (sound like AM radio baseball announcer, lol)...or even those early Dylan-ish phrasings

even his first live versions of EMR are or 'higher tone' ...i think more years years of constant smokes deepen the tone...then years of other nastier bad habits raised it again

i generally like the early tones of singers...for instance i dont listen to much by Elton or Joel after their first few albums

on the contrary, it was nice to hear John Stinson's baritone voice deliver Gord's wonderful Inspiration Lady...i told John he has to sing every song from Gord's last 3 albums so I can hear what they would have sounded like if they were laid down in the 70s
