The Resume

    (November 17, 1938-May 1, 2023)
    Born in Orillia, Ontario, Canada
    Recorded 'Wreck of The Edmund Fitzgerald,' 'Sundown,' 'The Way I Feel' and 'Canadian Railroad Trilogy'

Why he might be annoying:

    Every album that he released had a completely different sound than the ones before it.
    He didn't like his older songs, which were done acoustically, so he remade them with a synthesized sound.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He wrote all of his own songs.
    Many other artists have become famous off of the songs he has written, but he never complained.
