I wanted to share one of my favorite Kefera videos.
Of course, I love the cat in it...lol.

Pentangle had some great music and this is one great selection. I love the energy of this song and the flow of the guitar.
Hope you like it. :)

Really enjoyed this song Nightingale, this has to be the greatest from him yet. And that guitar playing on this one sure sounds great. It looks like a "SEAGULL" Guitar, (Made In Canada)


This one will go on my favorites at YouTube, would definitely buy one of his CD's ! :)

Seagull guitar...:) I have no idea but I like the sound of it.

I would buy one of his CD's too, Jesse. He doesn't have any so I guess we just gotta watch him at the 'Tube...lol.
Be sure and check out his Cat Steven's "Into White" video. It's really good!

Hey Jesse,
He did a pretty good cover of that great song, didn't he?

Yes, I would think that it is a difficult song to sing. Like lots of Gordon's songs, the melody is rather unusual and hard to stay with when you are singing it.
It is for me anyway but I can't sing so what do I know....lol.

Either way, I like Kefera's version of this very much. :)
Thanks for posting it.

Kefera seems to make every song he sings his own. He's got a real great voice this good man ! :)

This song is new to me.
Very nice!

I have been listening to Gordon's songs all day. Amazing man.
David did a really nice version of this. :)

Thanks for putting it up, Jesse. :)

Hi Patti and Jesse :)

I love Black Day In July. It really does have to be one of the most brilliant 'story' songs ever written. I love the emotion and intensity of this song...love the way it builds as the story is told.

Shoot, I would have wanted the ten albums, too...lol.

That's really funny about your nephew, Patti. He will like seeing this video...lol.
I have never heard of Vince Martin but Kefera knows so much about the early years of folk music that he sings or knows of all of them.
Very talented guy :)

Thanks, Jesse for putting these up. I was going to but you beat me to it:)
I am glad you are on top of things around here...lol. I am usually late :)

Nice one, for sure. Sounds very good. :)
I love that song even if it does make us all cry.
Well, except for "tough old Bill" LOL.

Thanks again, Jesse. Hope you have a good weekend. :)

Thanks Nightingale I will certainly try to have a good weekend. :)

It's too bad this song was banned from the radio when it came out. I bet a lot of people have never heard it. :(

It's so full of the stark truth of that time. Powerful and certainly gives you the visual image of anger and fear, indifference and mistrust.
Brilliant song.

Re: Kefera/ Gordon Lightfoot Songs !
 
I agree Nightingale, and it took a genius to write it. Always did love that song. :)
