Default Re: Gotta be a double

You guys are soo funny! You never know how a thread or posting will end.
When I 1st met Gord, it was aroung 12 yrs. ago, backstage in the "Green Room" after a concert at Ruth Eckard Hall in Clearwater,FL. me and my lead guitar player got free tickets from a friend of mine, Wally Bivons, who was Lightfoots road manager in 1974 after the release of the "Sundown" album. Wally also did some engineering, I think, during the "Dream St. Rose" sessions (his name is among on the album credits).
Sorry; let me get to the point. After some small talk, Gord asks me, "..you play "Can R.R. Trilogy? Do you use a capo for that?" I was very shocked. I aswered, dazed and confused, " uh, ...yeah. tune the low E string to D and capo the 3rd fret." He has an innnocence and youthful humor about him that is unmistakable.
