Guitar Comments from a Piano Guy:

It's always a joy to get close instrumentally to how Gord does it, of course. And practicing is fun.

Music is a performing art. So, all across the yrs, I've tried to present a song (guitar or piano)in a way that communicates w/ the audience in the best manner. Usually, simple is better.

In studio it's different - a different kind of performance if you will.

Please don't misunderstand me. I know full well the absolute jubilation of finally getting Chopin right. Just for me (and Chopin.)

Enough of the piano guy - I'll go wait in the truck.
