I understand. But at the same time, I've been listening to Harmony and I've got Sundown and Summertime Dream in the player as well. I prefer his voice on Harmony, probably for some pretty odd reasons. I keep skipping over the other two CD's.
I've come to appreciate lately, granted I have no other choice, the impact that time makes on a human being, from voice to body to mind. I prefer the voice on Harmony simply because it is who he is now. There is also a richness to his voice, in part because it was indeed so well engineered, that I find very attractive. If I knew little or nothing about him and you played Sundown for me and then Harmony I doubt I would recognize the singer as the same person. But he seems to have come to terms, at least in the studio with his voice and is using it to much better effect than he did on Painter.

Most of you now listened to me long enough to know how much I love this man's music, and everything he is and stands for, so don't shoot. I gave "Harmony" a "strong 9 out of 10" in an earlier topic, and I stick by my oppinion, but there is a part of me that longs for Gord's 70's voice. ?
