There has been much discussion regarding Music Man on the Barbershop list.
The quartet that did the School Board is out of Canada, named VIP (Voices in Public) http://www.voicesinpublic.com/
Regarding the Bullalo Bills, remember that the style of Barbershop singing was much brighter back then. It is also my understanding that the director asked the Bills to brighten even more.
