Of coarse Gord is in a class by himself, but the only other people that remind my of his style is Bob Dylan. Not his protest or spiritual songs, but his albums like NEW MORNING(i.e. "Forever Young" etc.) or BLOOD ON THE TRACKS, however Gordon has much more romance in his writing. I also agree with Bob, that John Denver reminds me of Gordon too, not his voice, but his relationship with nature. (i.e. "Sunshine on my Shoulders" "Calypso")
