I first heard Gord in a grade 9 English class in 1968. It was a year after CRT was released -- and that was the beginning. Still recall sitting in that class just mesmerized by that song. Immediately went out and bought the almum. Oddly, after almost 40 years since then, I still remember the name of the fellow who brougt in the album to play - his name was David Wooton .... perhaps he even posts here. If he does, thanks Dave ... brought me a lifetime of music that both me and my brother love. In fact, my bros takes guitar lessons with none other than Red Shea himself ... and he (bros) is a very good guitar player.
