This is word for word a spoken piece with a _lot_ of radio play in the
70's.  Titled "The Americans", it was spoken (with background music) by
Byron McGregor, a DJ with AM800 radio station CKLW in Detroit/Windor,
Ontario.  I had always ass-u-med he wrote it himself, but I guess not.
It made the top 40, I know.  Maybe the top 10.

It's definitely not Byron McGregor's voice, though. :)
