He and Roy O were probably the only 2 that had range like that...The man could write he could sing and he could rock your socks off....

Man--what a great range Del had. He could really sing!! I so wish he would have continued on and been with us much longer. I'm sad when I see these great youtube videos that we lost such a great talent to depression. Wish someone could have helped him. We never know what is going on n people's heads. I thought he was on top of the world with his new concert tour and recordings coming up. What a talent we lost!!

@lukeloveslauraalways This was nothing in the album version he could 2 1/2 notes ABOVE what he hits here. (from E5 to a A5)

How tall was Shannon? He looks five foot nuthin' next to that other guy on folk guitar.

Correct -- this is from a 1982 CBC special called "Burton Cummings Going For Gold". It also featured Bobby Vee & Leslie Gore, with a special appearance by Carl Perkins.
