As mentioned in another topic, Kenny Rankin's "I Love You", and "The Eye of the Eagle". Both fabulously melodic, haunting and stirring. THAT would really get the corpuscles a goin'!

Hey Frank,
Good to see your post, it's been a while. I would love to hear Gord record Rodney Crowell's Acoustic version of "Still Learning How To Fly". I'm sure most people here aren't familiar with the song. For that matter, I think you and Steve(fezo)may be the only folks familiar with Rodney Crowell
But he does write some wonderful songs - this is just one of many.
"Life's been good, I guess.
My ragged old heart's been blessed
with so much more then meets the eye.
I've got a past that's hard to forget
but you ain't seen nothing yet,
I'm still learning how to fly."

I ADORE Rodney Crowell!!! He is a wonderful lyricist and song stylist/singer. Maybe a Hal Ketchum song or a Radney Foster tune?
I love Gord singing GORD... as much as I enjoy "I used to be a Country Singer" etc. I love it so much more when Gord has written it. It's an addiction and I'm not goin' to no 12 step programme!
LOL

I'd like to hear Gord do a couple of John Denver songs. Can't you just hear him singing "Calypso" and "The Eagle and the Hawk"? "Follow Me" is another one I think he could do justice to. And haven't any of you wondered how Gord would do the two rarities in Songbook (the boxset) if he'd recorded them today? Just a thought.

Frank, you say the nicest things, thanks http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif
Regarding Steve, you're right...knowledge and good taste. You should check out samples from his CD (you can get the URL to his web page from his profile). I have it - very enjoyable. (Steve, I'll send my bill along, LOL)
Char, I can't believe I've found another Rodney fan! I idolize him and have for 20 years. IMHO there's no one better (he and Gord are tied in my heart and mind).
Mary Ann, I certainly can hear Gord singing John Denver - especially, "Follow Me".

Yeah Rodney fans! Another texas song/songwriter that Gord could cover: "Homegrown Tomatoes" by Guy Clark...that would be a hoot!
I still think Sawyer Brown should cover "Old Dan's Records".

Hey, Frank, Janice ...you're making me blush.....
This is cool..we've managed both Radney and Rodney! Talk about good taste!
On Radney - how about "Old Silver?" You'd e hard pressed to beat Radney's own vresion, but if anyone was gonna pull it off.....
