Default Re: Rolling Stone Magazine

I guess it depends on how you define "musician". If you mean, "instrumental player", then there are probably hundreds of guitar players alone (not to mention every other instrument) that have it over Gord; even in his own band, he certainly wasn't the guitarist Red or Terry was. Now, how many of those could also sing beautifully and compose music that transcends generations and will last through the ages and touch people to their souls, well, that's another issue. Do you really expect Rolling Stone to judge on the latter? Would you believe anything they had to say if they did? I wouldn't worry about those kinds of accolades, or snubs--and I doubt very much that Gord does either. As they say, "Consider the source."

Best to all,
DQ
