hey there, Tim....i gotta say, even though i misread his post initially, his statements certainly have provoked some thought...you and rm both object to his generalization and i would have to say that besides GL, you both are additional exceptions to his 'inverse relationship' claim
he did say 'generally'...specific artists aside, i would say that in various genres of music i've found that lyrics vs composition outweigh one anotehr and v.v....GL has such a nice balance
i guess we all pick out different things from blogs that hit us...i was more puzzled by the 70s production comments and his using Sundown as an example...i dont think it belongs in that kettle of fish at all...it led me to scan over the album credits for the first time in a long while...now i am listening to the guitars in Sundown (Gord on 12, Terry on 6 and Red on e-leads...as I've said, i really love acoustic leads) ...i dont think there's a production on Sundown that i question, even the synth on 7IS...perhaps i could do without the Smith harmonies on High and Dry, as could Gord
I hope others chime in...I will be reading some more of his blogging and see if there are equally bold statements/generalizations in his other offerings
