Does Gord have full producer credit on this album...does anyone know?

My understanding is that Rick Haynes is listed as co producer on Harmony.

According to the Grant Avenue Studio web site ( www.grantavenuestudio.com ), Harmony is one of the CDs Bob Doidge produced, so my guess is that the credits will read Bob Doidge and Rick Haynes. According to what Jenney and others have said, Rick was the "man on the scene" when all the band tracks were recorded because Gord was still laid up. Whether Gord will also have a producer credit, I don't know. (APPT production credits went to Bob and Gord), but since he wasn't physically in the studio during recording (except for his tracks of course), he may not take a producer credit (which I assume is his decision to make either way).

The engineers were (again according to the Grant Avenue site) Paul Riemens and Amy King (I presume in that order). Cathy was lucky enough to record up there, and both she and I can attest to the brilliance of all the people at Grant Avenue. APPT went down to Nashville for some post production; Harmony was done entirely at Grant Avenue. The sound of this new CD - based on those three songs we have heard - is just perfect; in my opinion far better than either of the last two albums at least.
