Thank's for the kind words GeoSteve, Some pretty good choices you make there. Of course Roger Whittaker, one of the best voices around today. Always did like him.

Dont know if you ever heard his beautiful song, "Canada Is", from the 70's? I can't think of a more beautiful song about Canada. I was always, kind of sad that Gord didn't write that one.

I have never seen him in concert, but I hope one day to be able too. He does concert this way, every 4 or 5 years, never in Moncton. In NB, it's alway's in Sackville. Im sure he must do an evening worth to remember. Great story teller, plays a good 12 string, and he is a wonderful whistler. All in all, he is just a great entertainer...

As far as Hoyt Axton, correct me if Im wrong, but has he not pass on? A few years ago, I might be wrong tho...

The Boss doing Sundown, would be worth, something to see and hear...

Thank's again GeoSteve, take care and later...Jesse.
