He sure has a way of putting his own personal touch to Gord's tunes. No shortage of talent here. I love what he does in "The Fitz." Gives the feeling that he keeps it afloat as good and as long as any captain could. Great voice and his Yamaha 12 string is a jewell.

i like the 6 string rendition of Strawberries... nice phrasing... a capo above 2nd fret on a 12 string doesnt appeal to my ear.... but i certainly dont mind (an understatement) capo 3 for CRT or EMR!

it would change the voicing, transposing to a chord progression a few tones higher, with lower capo placement, would be my preference ... pretty nice job of audio capture here

obviously a GL fan

here is an example of the capo on the lower fret ...it makes me love that 12 string a lot more... one of my favourite old tunes... hard to sing the end segment but nobody is Roger... and nobody is Ben, either.... good job, kid!
