No, David. You nailed all the facts. I only wanted to add that lead singer 
Larry Evoy has the third most annoying voice in pop-music history...Terry 
Jacks (fellow Canadian of "Seasons IN The Sun" fame) ranks a close second. 
Gedddy Lee of RUSH, of course holds the world record....

Something about the coldness of Canadian air in the '70s caused this 
anomylous vocal effect, methinks.

Jaimie Vernon
