i just found an ideal window to take in this conversation in solitude...Giam did an even better job than I thought he might and it didn't hurt that Gord was in tre-candid mode
Giam has a great voice and seems so very always prepared, but this must be effortless cos he is such a true music fan...he really has hosted some great stuff thus far
a few years younger that i, but remember that he used to play in a group called the Chia pets, from my hometown (no longer a 'town') ...later i saw him open for Dylan at Massey Hall when he was with Moxy fruvous...while I was watching them that night, I never realized in retrospect, they would be the highlight of the evening...no contest
anyhow, to get back on track, Gord was full of many, many new tidbits and besides the SFAWN solo performance at Hugh's, this interview is the highlight of the year, imo ...and just surpassed the Gzowski conversation as my fave
hmm, didn't know he & Smith lived in King during 'those' years
i hang on every word when Gord 'really' talks of writing EMR, IYCRMM, Sundown, A Passing Ship, etc....superb
songs: 'they're your children, you don't like to lease them out'
