    Burton stayed in the hotel I was a bartender at, he peeked his head in around the corner and asked if he could come into my lounge that wasn't open yet. Of course I obliged. He was a very unassuming and kind man. Was a huge honour to serve him.

      Nobody underrates Burton Cummings. He's got the awards to prove it and still working. His voice is about as versatile as they come for pop, rock, ballads. Just listen to him play around on this show. He can put more expression into one line than many of today's stars manage in an entire song.

    One of the best vocalists in rock music. Burton’s collaboration with Randy Bachman was magic and The Guess Who were never better than when Randy was still with the group. Bachman’s jazzy chord changes and guitar playing as influenced by the great Lenny Breau was a perfect compliment to Burton’s vocal inflections and fantastic range. The combination is most evident on Undun where Bachman’s jazzy chord changes are a perfect match with Burton’s vocal. The Guess Who absolutely belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

    One of the best Rock Voices ever. Love these guys. And it's a travesty that the Guess Who isn't in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame.

      Zeppelin Fan - The RR HOF is bullshit. It's pay to play. Look up it's true story. There is no dishonor not being in it.

    What a great talent. I knew someone who met him decades ago and even though my friend wasn't anyone famous at all, Cummings still obliged him an interview for his local cable radio show. He said that off-mic Cummings was a genuinely nice guy.

    One of the greatest rock vocalists in history. With all their awesome hits, The Guess Who should easily be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
