Give a listen to Lori Cullen's soulful, bluesy version (click to hear a 2 minute clip):

oh yeah!! - Lori can really do that great...I've seen her do it live a few times and have the CD...she sings great with Jory too...
;) Jory told me on Sunday at Massey Hall that she's in the line-up again on jan.19 and 20/07 at Hugh's Room for the Lightfoot tribute shows... |
She does a very nice job of it, but I can't help it - my favorite cover of this song is our own Bill Hall's. I get goose bumps just thinking about it :)
|
Lori was here in Ottawa as a member of the 'The way we feel' tribute earlier in the year. She did Pussywillows & Cattails and the only word I could muster up was 'delightful'.
Bill's version was recorded on the Friday session, so be prepared for more goose bumps. |
Hmmm, Not bad, but not as good as Lightfoot's version.

Kenny Rankin does a pleasant version of this song his album "Silver Morning".

Sorry--am I the only one that detests the clip that I heard? I understand the need not to make it sound like the original (after all, then, why not listen to that, instead?), but I hate the phrasing, don't like her lazy enunciation, don't like how she's made a much more profound song into a more trivial one with her cutsey, fake-sultry/pouty vocalizing. I think it's obvious she's got an excellent voice and a lot of talent, but I think she should have kept her hands off this one. I do remember hearing Kenny Rankin's version many years ago, kind of jazzy; I liked it, although not as much as the original.
