 Bob,
Are you serious about Ken's "cover band"?! Honestly speaking, I do not like Mr.Tiranti too much but at the same time who can say he's got no talent? In my opinion, as a singer, technically, he has a lot of fine qualities, and in a way he's closer to Byron than Bernie is as well as he's more of a singer actually with his 2 octave C# which he sings (Trouble) not screams or meows like Bernie does. But I agree that as a rocker Bernie got the style of his own which isn't unique (of course) albeit quite recognizable. However, when any of them sings July Morning - it is a cover version no matter how you call the band.
Cheers, Igor
