On the CD Harmony, when Gordon introduces the song, 'THE NO HOTEL,' he's got a great voice, the words are very well spoken. But right after he says , "Dr. David Suzuki, you hear a fan yelling something in Massey Hall. It sounds like 'Lightfoot rules,' but Im pretty certain that's not it.

As anyone caught, what it is that the fan is yelling? Just wondering...


At first I thought it might have been Charlene, :D but Im almost certain it's a man's voice. :)

nope - not me - I am quiet as a mouse....I may instigate a standing ovation now and then but that's all!
lol
I'll have to give it a listen and see who the culprit is.....
I do agree with the sentiment if that's what was yelled out!
;)

Just listened...sounds like someone WAY up back yelling "YOU RULE!"
I don't know anyone back there!!! lol

I think that the person is saying "Hippies rule", in response to GL's comments about "tree-huggers".
DQ

Quite possible I guess. :D :) :rolleyes:

I started an exact same topic about this awhile back, and pretty much got the same response. One of the two answers have got to be correct. :)

I wonder if it was someone on this site? :confused:

But they weren't yelling "YOU RULE". There were (at least) 3 syllables in whatever it was (s)he shouted out.

I thought it was Charlene, Fading Away, yelling, "CORFID IS FOR YOU." :D :D :)

That would be something. :D I wonder if whoever yelled it new that they were being recorded live on an album?

Probably not...

It's the same, with Sunday Concert, you must have notice it. When he does CRT, at one point the song comes to a quick stop, and somebody thinks the song is over and starts to clap. That was back in 1969, I wonder if that person is still alive today?

In the live verson of "Softly", at the beginning while the guitar is playing before he starts singing, if you listen closely, you can hear what sounds like a child laughing. :confused:

Actually it was someone from here yelling,"B. is the dude!" LOL! :D

Something I meant to mention last year but totally forgot to. The Tower Rec. where i bought Harmony closed it's doors last year in Jan.

Which i didn't discover until 5 months later. Now,it and it's adjoining structures have been demolished. :(

I shopped there from 1985 to 2004 and bought quite a significant amount of my music from there,Harmony being the second to last thing i bought there. The last? A Bill Withers cassette.

:D I'll listen to CRT as well.

I've listen to Softly, and I cant say that I heard a child laughing. Is it at the beginning right before he sings the first word?

I will give it another listen w/ headphones.

In the meantime, you put some volume on your stereo, and listen to the very beginning of Canadian Railroad Trilogy, right before he starts playing, you will hear him say something that sounds like, "Surprising Ouu." On Sunday Concert...

Borderstone, you are the Dude. :D :)

Yes, it's before he starts singing.

Im listening to, "Sunday Concert", right now. I will let you know...Jesse.

Don Quixote, you have a great code name or handle whatever it's called. I wanted to take it, when I joined. But saw it was taken. And I kind a knew it would be.

What is the comment that Gord said about "tree huggers." I have never heard that one...Jesse.

Fading Away, Ive listen to Softly 4 or 5 times, on Sunday Concert, And I cant hear a child laughing. Im sorry Im not saying it's not true, but someone else should give an honest opinion, on this.

It might be there but would be lying if I told you I hear it, your Lighthead friend ...Jesse.

Jesse-Joe, I don't have the Harmony CD with me (it's in my office), but the comments about "tree-huggers" are when he talks about Dr. David Suzuki and Sting.

As those who have been here awhile know, I come by my "handle" honestly. DQ is not just a moniker, it's a way of life with me. I am a professor of Spanish, have studied in Spain, have walked along the route of Don Quixote ("Don Quijote" in Spanish), have taught the novel several times in my classes, and try to read the novel cover to cover around every other year or so. It is a felicitous convergence that my favorite singer wrote a marvelous song about my favorite fictional character.

Cheers,
DQ

DQ and Jessie - I don't know , but like DQ I am not listening now, but did today to No Hotel, and at the mention of Dr. Suzuki, I'm pretty sure what *I* heard was a "boo"-ing.

DQ - while you're on-line when u read this, I have a Q for you:

Don Quixote - what a fascinating way to definately come by your handle with honours ! I had no idea all along you were a prof ! I should read more profiles more often.

Just goes to show that some posts here and there doth not reveal what we sometimes presume to be ( or not to be LOL) the total person behind the theme-based forum posts. Interesting. But, still.. the Q

A question for you DQ within your chosen ken: Do you think the poem on the back of the DQ album signed "gl" is in keeping with Cervantes' thoughts, means of expression, "feel", I am not quite sure how to ask - you're the pro !

And moreover, does the song DQ reflect some noteworthy aspects , small or any, of the book ?
Said otherwise, do the lyrics of DQ the song reflect GL's noted level of studying his subject when writing of it, i.e. The Wreck, CRT vis-a-vis Pierre Berton's book ? Its my impression that Gord does his homework historically. Thoughts ?

I have to admit I have only read the book about 1/3 the way, in High School. Assigned reading had no chance with me in High School . College - different, because my ability to feed my family hung in the balance. I'd of read it all the way then - should now !

Sorry I have strayed from the thread on the "sound(s)" in No Hotel. Weird how many different things we hear. Anyone else hear the "boo" when GL speaks of meeting up with Dr. Suzuki ? No political commentary implied or invited by the question, only the sound, in keeping with the thread ! :)

Thanks

geo Steve

Don Quixote, thank you for the info, tree huggers, now makes perfectly good sense. Your a professor who studied in Spain ,your no fool...

Thanks also to you Geo Steve, The boos were aimed at Dr, Suzuki and not Lightfoot. It is quite possible. Might have been a logger in the audience?

Jessi-Joe -

thanks, I was not uncertain as to whether the "boo" audible artifact was directed at GL ( I was quite sure it was not), nor did I wish to infer it was directed at Dr. Suzuki, lest I unwittingly drag a toe-line in the sand politically.

That would be quite improper in our forum for good taste's sake on otherwise potentially political issues. I simply indicated that when Dr Suzuki's name was spoken by Gord, it was at that exact moment I heard the "Boo", an audible bookmark if you will. The question simply was "has anyone else heard the "boo" ?
JJ are you saying you did ? I'd sure feel less stupid, if someone else did. I make no comment regarding Dr. Suzuki, again , too clarify.
Thak you Jessie for trying to help, I am sorry you misunderstood; very kind of you to respond.

- geo Steve

I don't recall anyone ever booing when Gord has talked of Suzuki (or Sting) as he leads into No Hotel. I was at Massey the night the song was recorded. He certainly wouldn't get any boos here in Toronto.

Im not saying I heard a boo, Im asking the question, can anyone make out, what does a fan shout right after Gord says Dr. David Suzuki? We had a lot of different answers.

Geo Steve think's it's a "boo"-ing. I myself dont know, is why Im asking...

I thought the shout-out was "Suzuki Rules!" but I can't be positive.
