Cummins is the MOST underrated rock singer ever. Beautiful voice!
so true....
Burton Cummings and Freddie Mercury are the best voices in rock music.
Absolutely underated Pam!

Burton Cummings should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame by now. He is a legend, an icon and musician/artist, a legend.
Its a crime they aren't but its simple...The owner of the rock and roll hall of fame took offense to american woman and never liked them..i think being in the canadian hall of fame means more to him anyway..
He's in the Canadian Hall of Fame, and the Writers Hall of Fame. He is Canadian and lives there. Makes since.
News flash, the "Rock n Roll Hall of Fame" is a complete joke. I'm amazed anyone pays any attention to it - so many people in it aren't even rock performers lol
Burton Cummings has been making us Canadians proud for decades!
I was 17 in 1977, Burton was turning 30. I remember watching this and this was amazing! No autotune and what a beautiful song. Always loved the Guess Who, but Burton Cummings by himself was the voice! So handsome and those eyes🎼🎶🎼💜
I was there at the Hatch Shell, April 30, 1977. I was also 17 and stood right there at the stage right in front of Burton. His piano side way to the stage on the right and it was the white one. So his profile was to me. He was right there, I could probably touch his feet if I tried ha ha Ha. I was just mesmerized when he sang this song at the piano. The voice, emotion, playing the piano, and of course not that it matters but he’s quite good looking and was dressed nice.
@@darjeeling3 Wow! Never been so lucky to see Burton live except online!!!!
I have had a crush on him over the years
@@darjeeling3 very good looking!
Gorgeous man!!!!!!!❤
Why can't there be entertainment like this today? The sheer talent of everyone on the couch, and their conversation is amazing.
Burton is an awesome vocalist-Would like to see him & The Guess Who inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame.
Boy you are so right just american women should get him in with the guess who let alone everything else. His voice is out of this world
I agree!!!!! He is such a great singer!!!!!!
What a voice! Burton's voice is like crystal clear and with an incredible range.
It will never happen as the guy who runs the RnR HOF has a bias against certain groups/musicians
People need to stop bringing up the hall of shame. who gives a shit. his increasable success tells the story
Dinah Shore was really good at her job. She seamlessly brought all the guests into the conversation.
It's a shame that such professionalism all the way around it mostly gone today.
Four originals... Ray, Dinah, George and Burton. This was the absolute peak of Burton's voice... a once in a generation singer. Still sounds great at 74. Special moment for him, as Ray was his idol.
Every time I listen to Burton Cummings sing, I get tears in my eyes. One of my favorite ever!
amazing acapella
I bet you Burton Cummings was in awe and so happy to meet Ray Charles.
He was, and it showed!
😂
Hearing Burton sing perhaps could make Ray see again
BURTON CUMMINGS IN MY OPINION IS ONE OF THE GREATEST AND MOST TALENTED SINGER SONGWRITER ALL RECORDED TIME WITH A VOICE TO DIE FOR!!! THANK YOU 👍🙏🎉😊FOR ALL YOUR GREAT MUSIC 🎶🎶 IT KEPT ME GOING ALL MY LIFE. ALWAYS LOVED U!!😇🙏👍🎉🎉😃🌹🌹🌻🐱🎊💋💋💋💋💋💋💋❣️😎
Absolutely correct. Take care.
Now this is talent! Taylor Swift is a joke compared to him!
Now this is talent! Taylor Swift is a joke compared to him!
His voice...so beautiful and that is an understatement.
The guy has all the tools in life. Born to entertain...
He’ll tell you that himself
I love the way Burton heaps praise on Ray ,and gets him singing , that was awesome, what a humble man , both of them
Burton's a real musical treasure. Induct Guess Who into the RnR hall of fame already!
Burton was buttering both sides of Ray’s biscuit. To be that talented and absolute rock legend and be ever so humble is far too rare.
Clearly one of the finest singers ever to draw voice, in any genre. Criminally underrated.
I remember this song from the 1970s. It's great. I saw Burton Cummings 4 times live and met him. Cheers! ✌️🇨🇦
🤟👋🇨🇦🇨🇦👋🤟
So handsome man!!!!!!
Dinah Shore was always gracious in whatever she was doing; here as a hostess is an excellent example. This is quite a lineup of guests: George Carlin, Ray Charles and Burton Cummings. Shore, in her own right, was an excellent singer.
Burtons little acapella with Ray was fantastic!
I don't know if anyone's mastered a musical instrument to surpass what Burton can do with the human voice. He's really on another level...
nicely said!
Freddie!
@@johnypitman2368 He also plays, flute, saxophone, drums, piano, and guitar!
@@Sandy-et5pj thanks Sandy. Im not surprised because Burton was dedicated to music as a child. Im a guy but couldn't help but notice how hunky Burton was and oh my gosh that voice. Been a fan since the 60s
Burton is truly a prodigy!
He hit it out of the park in this performance he just smoked it.
That is awesome he got to sit next to Ray Charles! And Ray heard his performance. Really a once-in-a-lifetime event. Well done, Burton!
I love Burton. He was an underrated performer for sure
I watched Burton and the band perform for my first time in Toronto in 1967. With his looks, and vocals, I knew he would be going places!
Here we are today, 55yrs later, I still listen 🎧 to that voice!
Canadians never underrated Burton’s genius!
Dinah was so good, I remember when I was growing up my mom would have her show playing on the T.V. Dinah looked very young for her age. Burton, Ray and George all in one show WOW!
I loved every second of this, especially that amazing moment when Burton and Ray Charles were singing together. WOW!!!!
DAMN RIGHT,VIXEN!
Wow. This is priceless. Ray Charles and Burton Cummings singing off the cuff...and Dinah Shore was one classy woman.
From an Era where there was no auto-tune or where real vocalists didn't lip-sinc
And would have been insulted had anyone suggested it to them.
His voice is just amazing! Could listen to him sing 24/7.
Man This is truly amazing. Burtons voice was peaking at this point. Most definitely one of the greatest voices to ever perform on a stage. I so would love Burton to come to the States .Please Burton Make my & my wife’s dream a reality
He's on tour in U.S. now. We're seeing him in Milwaukee 3/25. CAN'T WAIT!!!
Burton is proof that God exists; only God could gift someone with a voice like that.
Yes I knew our nasality would produce great voices in song......
Lol, god
Love Burton Cummings.
Also: those are some VERY glassy eyes.
Absolutely . One of the best rock singers 👍 Canadian brother
Burton was 30 yrs old then.. we ALL looked good when we were that age!
But, his voice is amazing and he is very cute!
A quiet George Carlin? That's NEVER happened before. Burton stole the show!
Burton ...always a favorite voice.
I still play this album all the time!! Thank you Burton for all your music!
This man with the guess who need to be in the hall of fame really sad please hurry get these guys in while they still stand tall
his voice is fantastic , his music & songs also. heard him in concert several times . with the (guess who) when he was younger, later solo & throughout his career. The concert was in an arena and he sounded amazingly just as he does right here singing on Dinah shore's show ..
Anyone notice how nice, decent, calm and truly real these people are? What has happened to us since 1976? Jimmy Carter was President…I had such high hopes then as a 10 year old kid 😢
She ran a good show. That was a nice segment. Only Cummings is still "standing tall." Miss the others a lot.
Extraordinary discussion of the creative process here by leaders in their fields. You don’t hear this sort of thing on television anymore.
I was 20 yrs old in 1977 he had a great voice and I rmember this song well.
Now that’s how you honour someone who inspired you.
Does it live, and it sounds just like the record, amazing!
OH MY GOD, I am TOTALLY head over heels in LOVE with this Man. PLEASE Burton LOVE ME
🤟👋🇨🇦🇬🇧🇺🇸👋🤟
lol
@@westernsharpieshe better stand in line or take a number
Love this song first heard it k.s. stereo radio 95.5 guam u.s.a I was 12years old
perfection....
Holy damn. George Carlin, Ray Charles, and Burton Cummings....I guarantee Dinah Shore never had such a wealth of talent on her show at one time before or after. One of the greatest comedians ever, one of the greatest musical talents ever, and one of the if not the greatest rock singers ever. What a gem of a video, thanks for this
I went into the talk-show couch part of this video expecting it to be totally lame. I'm glad I continued to watch as I really enjoyed the conversation.
... What a great Diana Shore show.
Great host
I saw the Guess Who when I was in 6th grade my brother came home from Vietnam and took me to the concert. That day I fell in love…….
Burton Cummings is a very talented musician. 🎹🎵
2:03 My all time favorite song from the 70’s to now! Love it love it love it!
Thank you for writing such an amazing song!
Wow! 4 great icons one stage.
Man Dinah was playing with a full house right there. Holy.. &&@$
Imagine performing with Ray in the room!! Ray's comments. Burton nailed it! 👍
Your voice is so mellow and peaceful like silk creating a peaceful calm ........
Woe , these 4!!!
Three legends for one show.
Four actually.
Canada has great artis beautiful people
amazing talent great song beautiful voice
What an amazing group of guests (legends)...Ray, Burton and George!
I watch this video just to hear Burton sing, Ray's song "Thats Enough"! Singing "acapella" and in tune is impressive!
Burton is so tall, dark & handsome with the best voice!🎵🎹🎼🎶🎤
Burton's voice was what made The Guess Who successful!❤. along with great band members. Especially Randy Bachman & Kurt Winters. Garry Peterson on drums!
What an amazing voice!
My favorite music Man 🎶💗🎹👍🇨🇦
I love this song & Burton Cummings voice🤩 Star Baby 🤩
What a couch of talent
Love this interview and love Burton's music, especially his first solo album. I had the vinyl, then I had the cassette, now I have the CD, among his others. :) the first time I heard Stand Tall I was in a car with my bf and I as soon as I heard the voice I yelled "that's Burton Cumings". His voice is so distinct to those of us who love his music. Still one of the vrry best in my opinion.
So Awesome
Loved those days, Dinah, Merv.
How did I miss this?! Being on Dinah Shore's show at the beginning of your solo career AND sharing it with the legendary George Carlin and Ray Charles must have been an amazing experience! Your performance was wonderful as usual!! Bet your Mother loved this piece!!
This guy is great and he's singing live. It's not the record with the fadeout which so many did back then and lio synching now
It's a pretty short list of musical legends that had the level of control on their voice to maintain the emotion of such top-notch lyrics.
Cummings is absolute musical royalty.
What a great interview! IMHO, Burton Cummings and Freddie Mercury (no particular order) are the two best vocalists in rock history.
Wow, what a panel.
A proud Winnipegger here, very proud to say (and Burton too) we call Winnipeg home. The fact Winnipeg produced one of the greatest, voices, underrated bands that deserves to no end to be in the Rock n Roll hall of fame. What a voice!
WOW!
Amazing vocals!
Wow. Just wow. Can these men sing!!! This is just a gem of a warm and real interview.
amazing burton...so generous and all professional...
What a voice!
Burton Cummings! My Gosh I have always *Loved* this guy's voice!
If I could ever Sing worth-a-darn..
I would *Love* to sing like Burton!
What an amazing voice xxxooo
Simply beautiful and amazing ! Bravo Burton ! We love you ! 🙂👍❤
They belong in the Rock and Roll hall of Fame years ago. Great singer.
Epic..
A few months back I had the opportunity to see Burton perform near Palm Springs, CA. He sounded truly amazing that night and was quite the entertainer. So talented and devoted to his craft. Why he and the Guess Who are not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is truly astonishing. They deserve the recognition they should have gotten years ago and I hope one day they get in. Rock on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The ability of Dinah and her guests to so beautifully and intelligently articulate their thoughts and feelings so the audience understands and is almost part of the conversation. Sadly, we seldom see this level of conversational depth in today's performers.
Great voice.
Omg what a panel all time greats thanks Diana
Takes me back to riding the bus home from school and when a song was a hit it seemed the DJ'S played those songs around the same time everyday. Lol. And where I lived it was a 45 minute ride home. The 70's were the best of times.
I really like him
I grew up in this era.....man im glad i did
So glad this was the kind of music in my day.
Such honest, respectful, and witty conversation. And he singing!! Wow!!
What a GREAT show!
... I love this song, only he can do this song ever.
Such class shown for a man worthy of admiration - Ray Charles. 2 legends right here.
He is great! Thank you for the beautiful memories, RIP
Wow…what a great line-up and relaxed atmosphere.
