Truly a tremendous loss. The biography channel (Canadian) featured Ken today and there were segments with Gordon speaking of his friend and their days spent at the Yorkville coffee houses. There was even mention of Gord in the 'Two Tones' and a B&W still of Gord & Terry Wheelan. Gord's music was used as a soundtrack in places.
Anyone who has not seen Ken's artwork should check out his remarkable talent.
Sad...
