hi Ron...interesting stuff....i noticed a while back that a local station was doing live from Grant Ave Studio broadcasts but I never found them archived anywhere...here's a pic of Amy and Bob

would have been a bit after your sessions but a dozen years ago while working with an indy act (our Grant guy was a friendly sound engineer named Robin Aube) we had a tech problem with one of the analog masters as well as a synching challenge ..well, it was Bob who stepped in and did a salvage job that was similar to the obstacles he overcame while producing the Harmony CD from demo scraps, etc...Doidge eventually coproduced, played some high string and added some harmonies in the wee hours of these sessions...if i knew he'd played the trumpet i'd have asked him to pull it out...hey, that kinda mishmash arrangment has worked out well for Feist...some of the local musicians who played on Gord's last few albums were part of those sessions...since then i've had an affection for all those journeyman session players out there, humbling

back to the question, i think there's a "live CD' thread where the person's name is mentioned who recorded Gord at Massey back mid 70s but it wasn't Doidge (as rm can tell ya, i would have remembered that)
