Also Burton Cummings - lead singer of TGW - had a solo career and did a parody of GL singing Maggie May in which he sounded almost like a dead ringer for Gord. Again, could this be what you're thinking of? I don't know if Cummings ever did Secret Agent Man solo, or any other espionage-like song...but possible.

Since you mentioned Burton Cummings, maybe you can help me with a question about him? I remember a little of his solo career...I guess it was the early 80's and I remember him singing a very nice song that was played on the radio...I think it was a love song, but I don't remember. Anyway, I wish I could find the song and I have nothing to go on...would you know the names of the songs sung by Burton Cummings during his solo days, or where I could find info???

Also, what is the name of the Gordon Lightfoot tribute song by the Guess Who?

Thanks!
