Re: Brian E. sings Gordon Lightfoot / A Great Voice !
I have purchased every album that Gord ever made, as well the the songbook compilation. I have spent hours lying on my rec room floor between my 100 watt speakers with Gord cranked up as loud as i dared. I have attended too many concerts to count and had the honour of meeting Gord backstage in Ohio. I mention this only to add credence, when i say that Brian E. is amazing!! He has obviously done his homework and has the guitar playing sounding exactly like Gord. His voice has all the Lightfoot intonations down to a science!! Kudos to Brian!! Of course i can tell the difference but when i clicked on one of his covers in here the other day, my wife thought it was really Gord...awesome

You should check out his original also. He has more also
I can't seem to embed the video so it's easy to miss it Anyhow glad you dig but I don't see him as imitator ( or mr Stinson) rather I just think they have similar stylings and tones with Gord obviously being an influence. I think Croce also comes through, as does Ekard I hope Ron jones sets up a YouTube channel someday also and puts up some of his samplings of unique style that like John and Brian and some others in the crowd, have a love of Lighfoot emitted with every phrase having Brian going into studionthe past few months as well as that BBC gem surfacing, has been a real treat for those who long for a resurgence of "the voice".. I hope john also gets into a studio sometime. I do recall Mando myk playing me a recording of a fella who was also delivering these good tones but can't trace him down and neither could myk There are no shortage of excellent singers out there but only a small handful have been gifted with a "voice" :) More more more.... |

Was just listening to this silky smooth non-gord cover performance and giving thanks to the music left behind by those taken from us, far too early

Re: Brian E. sings Gordon Lightfoot / A Great Voice !
unless members are turned off by versions of Gord songs done by anyone other than Gord (aka, "covers"); do yourselves a favour and bookmark Brian and/or Bob's channels the hits just keep on comin'.... actually, it's these non hits that I really admire! :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap::clap: (on a scale of 1 to 5) |

Does anyone know if Brian has any CDs out? He has, hands down, the absolute best voice, IMHO. I LOVE IT. |
