Default Re: Well, how rude (Albany Times Union article)

Brink and Spocksbrain, et al - so right, and hello !. The unimaginable obnoxiousness of some malcontents that do not know they are listening to a living legend - and the priveledge of that. And, even if the performace was a notch off "perfection" or what some nostalgia-show hopefuls think do not sound like his old LP's in the 70's need to remember the humanity of gracefully growing older, and admiring GL , who is doing so with more vigour, grace, aplomb, and energy than most his age, not to mention performers.

Long live Gordon, and I believe most of us in corfid value watching his adaptations to his changing ranges and vocal mechanics - and still turning in a heartfelt performance drawing standing ovations. Cut him a little slack water-balloon bombers, could U sing or write songs like that at ANY age ?, probably not... respect your elders, and talent - the hooligans. Bydingies ! I sound older, but g**da**** it pi**es me off to hear people panning the Man and quite possibly hurting his feelings in his quest for perfection in performance. ~ geo steve
