Another question would be is "what are those little round "pads" on the pickguards of his guitars? I would guess they are put on the muffle the sound of his fingernails when they touch the pickguard.

This question would also be of some interest to me, it has been discussed here at Corfid before with many different answers... It would be nice to hear what the man himself would say it actually is.

Your guess Ron (lighthead2toe) makes a lot of sense to me. :)

I copied and pasted this from another thread :

Posted by Buckwheat301 :

Can anyone tell me which specific effects pedals Terry Clements uses? I have read a Jan 2000 article by Acoustic Guitar Central mag. From what I can tell he uses Boss pedals. I'm trying to figure out exactly which ones. And if I could learn the settings on each pedal then my life would be perfect!

I would like to see if someone can relay any Lightfoot/Croce jamming or hanging out anecdote(s) if he is willing to share....also ask about "Thursday"

also,
has he watched Steve Earle's "best story ever" from The Hour? and if he should be able to recall that evening, tell us more!

what is making that "pop" sound and then the "ahhh" during the segment segue of the Cabaret recording?

rm, at this point in your interview/interrogation, I assume he will simple walk away OR give you the, "you had me at hello" line:)

the sound in Cabaret is the popping open of a can-maybe beer, maybe pop..then someone (maybe Gord) taking a swig and then a satisfying 'ahhhh' afterwards..

Re: Corfid wants to know
 
so when Derek asked, Gord replied it was the sound a lighter?
need to clean my ears, never had a lighter that sounds like that
