Howdy from Colorado. This is my first posting. Happy to have anyone show me the ropes in this forum. Been a GL fan for 34 years. If God were ever to pic a Saint based on giving so many people pleasure and introspection from lyrical tapestry, Gord would surely be odds-on favorite.
My opening subject would be: I am a great fan of his "70's" period not for the usual reasons fans give, but rather I genuinely love to hear the beautiful string arrangements and orchestrations he and Nick DeCaro worked up. It realy put to use his Westlake College musical education. He'd be a professor Emeritus and honorary doctorate there for sure if they still were around. Mike Heffernan does amazing things with keyboards and very good synthesied strings technology; and it works resoudingly on his 2002 DVD Reno Live recording in songs like Restless and CRT
