Fantastic picture I wonder when it ws taken, he looks VERY good! Does Gord pick out the pictures for the album covers?

Sounds like a great album, can't wait for it!

It’s a gorgeous cover – he looks good enough to eat!

The bangle he’s wearing isn’t the beautiful turquoise one from the early '80’s, is it?
There was a lovely one he wore – '83/’84? Could it be that one?

I wish my Flitecase was as bashed up as his –it looks so damn cool!

I got permission to post the clips on my GL web site so those of you who can't install Itunes can hear the clips now. My clips are real media files.

I think the bracelet is the one he was wearing when I saw him in New Jersey and PA in 2002 - I asked him about it and he showed me what a jeweller friend had made him. It was lovely - gold, white gold and pink gold. Very nice.

Yes, Char,
I'm sure you are correct because I recognised it also.

Thanks, girls! - for everything!

I've said this before on this site, I know - but even though I'm a Mac user (and would never change) and i-Tunes came as standard on my iMac we, in the UK, can't buy anything from the Music Store yet! We've been promised that if it succeeds in the US it will be available in Europe by the end of the year.

But - we can listen! And I've listened - and I LOVE what I hear!!! Sounds wonderful - can't wait!

(Yes, the cover looks great, too!)

Many thanks for posting those, Valerie. Living in England, I was so frustrated at not being able to download itunes! The 3 clips sound fantastic, better than I dare hoped! Roll on May 11!!!

I am assuming Mair that you mean the availability of the itunes music store in Europe because hopefully by the end of the year one way or another you wil be able to get your hands on an actual CD. See reference on another topic to cookingvinyl

If what Mair was told is correct I doubt if you will want to "wait until the end of the year" especially to then have to pay the inflated UK CD price. Maybe the friendly HMV folks on Oxford street could be persuaded to get you an imported copy at the high price.So no doubt you will then consider ordering on-line from a US supplier. In this regard you might like to hear my experience back in 1999 when the songbook (box set) appeared. I ordered from an outfit in Florida that at the time Rik Stevans had a commission link to on his "GL Tribute" web site Songbook was released on a Tuesday but no store was allowed to ship until the day before. So my box set actually left Florida
sometime Monday evening, by UPS. they e-mailed me tracking number and with mounting excitement I was able to track it from Florida to a UPS US hub then to their UK depot at Castle Donnington (East Midlands Airport, England) and was absolutely thrilled to receieve it at my office in Dorset on Wednesday before midday.A fact I reported promptly to the Newsgroup:- http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=e....svr.pol.co.uk
So keep an eye out here for reports on sightings on one of the US stores CD Now/ CD Universe/Amazon etc. preferably not CD Universe. although I very quickly got the Classic Masters CD from them I requested the Bear Family Sunday Concert Plus for Christmas but they let my wife down repeatedly and she finally got it from Amazon in time for my birthday last week
