Old Charlie Farquharson still has the laugh ! ;)

Yes indeed jj I should have added (poor quality sound) to that interview. I hope you & others interested can get to make them out ! :redface:

As I told you before jj "your the pro, you the man"

No one should copy those for whatever reason they may have ???

great stuff again jesse joe! love seeing these, interesting to hear gord talking about cathy and his pride in his new songs was clear, watching this has made me play "east of midnight" again!

I really enjoyed these! Thanks so much for posting them.

Is it just me noticing stuff like paint drying, but don't you always see Gordon fumbling with eyeglasses or something whenever he was being interviewed..?.

he's never been comfortable being interviewed on camera..he likes phone interviews/radio..lol

These interviews were just great - seemed like he really opened up a little on Cathy and also the charges he faced. Nice going back in time also. Thanks so much for posting!

The guitar he's playing is not a Martin. Anyone know what it is?

That guitar is a McGlincy, Terry Clements also has one.

Many thanks for three more great videos Omer but tell me are the curved interference lines due to a fault in your television or VCR's tuner and are they on the original tape?
I noted that near the end of part four that he confided that he "enjoyed recording".
So just maybe as he is still apparently occasionally writing new songs plus there are a great number of songs he has never officially recorded that he wrote himself plus even more that he has performed in the past that were written by others, he might yet find the inspiration and motivation to record a 22nd album of "new" material as opposed to what would be another live album compiled from old concert recordings (I count the 18 Songbook "rarities" as listed on
http://www.corfid.com/gl/albums/songbook/lyrics.htm
as the 21st album

It's because I use a digital camera that is pointed @ the TV screen. I have a flat panel Digital TV downstairs that doesn't do these lines, but the room has to be dark for them to come up good.


I know there is a better way to do this, but I shouldn't be putting stuff from the TV on YT to begin with as you well know,even if many folks are doing it just the same.

And I dont want to invest any money in this.

I make them private after a while before YT will finally pull the plug !

I wouldn't have uploaded & posted the interview Gord did with Pamela Wallin had I remembered that it was in the CBC Archives, just thought of it last night ! :( But after viewing it on the CBC archives I saw that it's running time is 7:35>>>> and the one I uploaded is 9:02,,,,, so maybe it was ok ! :)
