Re: One Year Today

Yeah, today has to be pretty hard on Kim and the family. Rick Haynes' comments on Gord's last days and how he was ready to pass on to the next adventure really made me feel better about Gord being...

Re: photo from Kim - Feb.14 2024

I suspect this was near the end? Maybe November, 2022? But the trees don't indicate that.

Disregard. I see on findagrave.com they've added his name and birth and death dates.

Hello Char, and Happy New Year. Are you aware if the family has added Gord's name and B & D dates to the family headstone? If not, I'm wondering if there's some talk among the family as to replacing...

Brian would be a great choice, but I don't know if he's performing anymore. Aside from a new video last Christmas, he hasn't recorded any new videos for 7 years or so. When "Solo" came out I asked...

Happy 84th Gord!

Boy the years fly by quickly. I hate it when I fill out an online form and the birthdate drop down menu makes me scroll way, way down. Bummer.

Re: Summertime Dream LP Cover.

Interesting take. I like the photo because it's austere, simple and no nonsense. Just like the album itslef. No strings, I would call the recording very "dry". I think it worked. Not happy with the...

Re: Try Firefox to access Corfid.com

I suspect you are quite right. However, it's the site provider's duty to keep things up to date. That is, unless Corfid is running off his own server and has never kept up with updates/improvements.

Re: Try Firefox to access Corfid.com

This is really weird. Only Firefox works, Edge Chromium and Chrome don't. Corfid needs to contact their web provider. They're not getting what they're paying for.

Re: Do you think the song ',For Lovin Me,' is chauvinistic?

I think the song is just a snapshot in time of a guy with a chip on his shoulder. I suspect Meredith got a hold of her father and filled his head with notions.

Re: ABC news entertainment review of SOLO

Just got the CD in today, the vinyl version comes April 3. Small detail, but it's nice to see the old Warner Bros. logo on one of his records once again.

I just got notified by Amazon that the delivery of the Solo album has been delayed to April 3. I don't know if it's for the LP or the CD or both, since I ordered both.

Re: NEW album - 'SOLO' -LISTEN to SONG - Gord & guitar only - MARCH 20,2020

Yeah, the Amazon listing says Gord discovered a cd of these songs from 2001 and 2002. It appears they're not newly recorded.
