Terrific post. I'm sure that I speak for all when I say that I am glad SOMEBODY is finding these old videos and posting them here.

I doubt for the post of the year but thanks all the same jj, I have to get the sound to play lower, then I will be 1/2 happy. Not as good as yours but Im missing equipment. :redface: Your still the pro here ! :headbang:

Really glad you enjoy them bjm7777, but I hope you turn your volume down when you view them. :eek:

[RM]

What fun !

I like at the end of part 1 when Lightfoot says "I have a tendency to mumble when I speak" and Helen Shaver wastes no time in uttering "Yeah".

Thanks Jesse Joe.

and 30 years later, Gord and Helen are eternally united along CWOF:

I believe Jesse is recording the old videos as they play on his TV..they weren't on YouTube until he posted them..

[DawnsMinstrel]

Thanks a bunch Jesse Joe!

[Jesse Joe]

Happy you enjoyed them Tim. :)

[podunklander]

Thanks for this archival treasure cuz!

Anyone know why Gordon never did another movie? He sure seemed sincere about continuing on. I wonder what sort of roles/scripts came his way? Well, glad he didn't get too into it lest it took away from his music!

[JohninCt.]

Excellent!! Thanks Jesse Joe

[formerlylavender]

Gord's speaking voice never changes, does it? Thanks for posting this, Jesse Joe.

I can't play this. I just tells me to accept someone as a friend. What am I doing wrong???

[charlene]

this is why they can't be seen...

[ELizabeth]

I can 't play them either. Would really love to.

[lighthead2toe]

With the videos still in "private mode" I'm not sure, or can't remember if it includes Alan singing "Wherefore and Why." He does an amazing version of it with a full orchestra backing him up and I have it here on a cassette tape from the 1981 interview.
There are no recordings of this that I'm aware of but would gladly share it if I knew how to make it work. Alan puts his own twist on this great song and I just love listening to it now that I've revived it from my dusty collection of Gord stuff over the years.

[Rob1956]

Forget "Private", all*I get is "this video does not exist"!!!

[joveski]

same with me - doesnt exist

[charlene]

he's obviously pulled them or they have been taken down by youtube. he needs to load them up at VIMEO..
