Sometimes it's fun to revisit topics from the past. I have to respectfully disagree, "Knotty Pine" is one of my favorite tunes of Gord's. I like its starkness, just Gord, and electric guitar, a bass guitar and chimes. The narrative weaves between a favorite pine tree in the forest, and a favorite woman in his life.
There are metaphores all over the place, I think it's a much more complex song that it seems on the surface.
