The first time I heard a GL tune was in Hornepayne, Ontario in the winter of 1967. That goes back a little way. I was in the O.P.P. then. A Lithuanian game warden worked there also and asked me if Ihad ever heard this Canadian guy sing, I said no and the rest is history. I have every vinyl record made I think and am now getting caught up on the cd craze. Just got the songbook for Christmas and love it. Now own my own business in Sault Ste. Marie and still listen to the music almost daily. My sons age 28 and 30 cant get enough of it. I think GL spent a few blurry days in Hornepayne with someone I knew back then, Paul Gulley.
just a small piece of history for you.
