Yes, he's good :)
Steel Rail Blues always makes me smile no matter who sings it. :)

I think he's good on the guitar. I like the A.P. song very much, too.

good job....and i see you took my advice and moved the camera at least 4" closer so we could see even better, lol

how about going back to youtube friendly 4:3 format (ie. lose the letter box) and sneak up a bit on this fine talent? :)

lune 11-28-2008 07:08 PM

Re: Gordon music covers, enjoy
 
Sorry jj, unfortunately now all the video on youtube are this format:
16:9

I'm glad you like what he does. I sure he like to read your comment here and on youtube !!!

Thanks a lot :)

For you JJ i have update this post with a new video, with closer capture this time :)

Loved them. Great renditions. So it seems that GL music is going to last for another 50 years or more..... I am 54 years old ...this guy looks younger... I know a girl, 24 years old that does Song for a Winters Night.... I am going to see if I can get here video of it...It would be great to encourage young people to 'get ' this music. I know they do...but just help in getting them heard.

well, then he needs to tackle a guitar version of Lightfoot's Nous Vivons Ensemble:)

this S+G one was fun watching the all the riffin ...i like the camera/mic position for Sound of Silence best - the mic picks up guitar and vocal best when he is facing it
