I like the ununseeatshun that Lightfoot uses. He talks like that as well. It really brings out his Canadian accent.

My only dislike is how they mixed the Dream Street Rose album. I thought that his voice should have been much more prominent instead of the instruments being so loud. They drown out his voice at times. I would like to have a copy of Shadows and Dream Street Rose with no instruments and just Gordon singing. Those albums contain some of his best vocals, yet they are drowned out a little too much. Not on all of the songs, just some of them.

I know that Gord sometimes sings softly, but they could have still brought the instruments down at times in the studio. He has the best voice of all time.
