I've been known to be wrong, though!

FWIW, I drilled down through a bunch of the more than 300 comments on this video, and here was one from somebody named "Kujalamuse" that was posted 5  years ago:
"Don Shelton was the voice of 'Crackle'. He was a member of the Hi-Lo's from the late 50's to early 60's. Don was a Chicago-based singer and multi-reed instrumentalist, now living in Southern California. He sang on hundreds (maybe thousands) of famous jingles in the 60's,70's  80's. He is a friend of mine, and the last time I worked with him in the studio he told me who Pop (Len Dressler)  and Snap were, but I've forgotten who Snap was.

But I'm like you--the three voices all sound like the same singer to me!
