New collector of GL CD's

Hi Mitey,

So, you're in San Pedro? Kinda far from me even on the freeway. I SOOO wanted to go the Cerritos concert. I was devasted to find out it's the first night of Passover, so I'll be home with the family. I'll be catching him the following week, however, in Las Vegas.

jj -- sorry for "too much information." I got carried away...

So is the check Dr. Cathy.

OH-kayyyyy, I have a NEW favorite song. I have listened to my NEW (never-heard-before-by-me) CD of Gord's Salute album. I - AM - AB-SO-LUTE-LY in LOVE (L - O - V - E) with the song "Tattoo." My heart was breaking listening to it. The poor man just couldn't find love for years and years, apparently. I'm happy he finally found someone (and gave up drinking). XXO to Gord.

Yes. I just saw it bounce out of my mailbox. It's bouncing down the street like a ping pong ball.

I'll do my best!! Within decency limitations! Nahhh, I'm just nuts over G.L.'s music and my enthusiasm is in overabundance, plus it's definitely helping lift my mood from the doldrums it's been in for the past couple of months. I feel like a new woman!

P.S. You fellow Lightheads are THE BEST!!

Sheryl

Wait until you hear the new recording of SFAWN with Bob on bass and high string guitar. The CD will be done as soon as I get off my lazy butt and finish up the artwork. I had it pretty near done, but then was told I did it wrong, because I didn't include publisher names in my song list.

Cathy http://www.cathycowette.com

Well get busy, girl! I know I'm not the only one looking forward to the release of your CD. It sounds like it will be great

[Janice]

Yes!!! That is one of the three songs tied as my favorite, too. I was hoping you'd come across it and mention it as a favorite. I didn't suggest it because I wanted you to discover it on your own

There are others whose titles I can't remember, also. I think I mentioned Song for a Winter Night. If I'm screwing up the titles, please forgive me! Also, Your Love's Return (mentioned that already). LOOOOOVE "Shadows." I listened to that one over and over and over as I drove over the hill last night to take my brother some chicken soup (he's sick). Felt misty the whole time. I just want to take Gord and hug him, you know? I'll have to keep pen and paper handy in the car and jot down the titles so I can remember to post them here.

Sheryl!!
-wait until the car is stopped to take notes!
lol
Char

Hey, Charlene, you know how I am -- I get TOO excited!! I actually put a pad and pen in the car already and marked down every song on the Shadows CD except for the last three. They're o.k. (Gord and God forgive me!!) I can listen to the song "Shadows" over and over. <sigh>

O.K., just received in today's mail: GL's Sunday Concert (Plus), Summertime Dream, AND the United Artists Collection! Just finished listening to Summertime Dream, love it, OF COURSE. Am now listening to (and am in HEAVEN...) Sunday Concert (he's singing CRT!!!). Man, oh, man, what a beautiful voice this man's got..... mmmmmmm.

Sheryl

Home From The Forest is also on Classic Lightfoot the best of Vol. II.


Greetings from Victoria.

I need to amend (read: take back) what I said earlier. On one album (yeah, yeah, CD, it's my age talking, hehe) I mentioned I didn't much care for the three songs at the end. One was Triangle and the two songs after it. Well, I got to feeling guilty, so I listened to that CD over and over and, darn it, don't you know that by the end of the next evening, I love those songs, too!! As a matter of fact, Triangle is one of the songs my 11-year-old daughter (who I've hooked on GL now!) requests!! So, there -- I've nothing but love for the man and ALL his songs. MMMMMWAH!

Also, I have several new favorites that I hit the "repeat" button on my car CD player: Tattoo, Romance, Knotty Pine, Saturday Clothes. Oh, to mention the new one, Harmony, my special favorites are: River of Light, No Mistake About It, End of All Time, Shellfish, Sometimes I Wish.

I've been spoiling myself and just re-playing over and over the CDs I've already listened to, so haven't started on Sunday Concert or UA Collection yet. I will, I will! I'll listen to those when I'm home at night and the kids are in bed, so I can take it all in and really concentrate and just relax and listen. God Bless GL.

Well, I'm doing my parenting job properly. Alex, my oldest, just had me order 5 more GL cd's!! (She already has Dream Street Rose.) She's ordering: Harmony, Summertime Dream, Shadows, Salute, and Don Quixote. Excellent choices, IMHO.

Oh, and remember how we were discussing in another thread, I think, about how none of us thought of dancing to a GL song? Well, I found one I'd actually like to slow dance to: If There's a Reason.

Just got Songbook and GG II. My collection is now COMPLETE!! I have been listening to Disc 1 and am currently listening to SFAWN <sigh> I'm only 8 songs in. My favorites are, of course, SFAWN, The Way I Feel, and A Message to the Wind. Wish I was older, then I could have listened to his stuff earlier (when it was originally out). (Can you imagine anyone wishing they were older?) I'm in absolute heaven. Now, CRT is playing. Yesterday, I was going to pick up my 9-year-old from a friend's house and my 5-year-old fell asleep after listening to "Softly." (I had pushed the Repeat button, so it was playing over and over.) I'm a sucker for his romantic songs, could ya tell? Oh, and I just love the liner notes and photos!! I'm still looking through it as I type this. Well, maybe not at the same time. I'd need 3 hands (like Cathy) to do that, hehehe. Well, next report, probably tonight or tomorrow, folks!

Interestingly Sheryl now that you have visited our chat room and "met" Susan and I you might like to read her account of how soon after we met and when we were all playing the recently-released (May 1999) Songbook disc by disc in sync she suddenly got extremely lightheaded and when "Same Old Loverman came around (Disk 2 track 11) she brazenly asked me to dance . So we pretended to do so in a virtual manner and the rest as they say is history:-

Apologies to those who have read that before

John, are you serious? You met your wife, Susan, in the NG chat??? (O.K., now that I've posted this, I'll go back and read what you linked...)

It's the truth, Sheryl. Wait until you hear the rest of the story.

Absolutely serious Sheryl
we had our pic in the Toronto Star and the similar story made it into the Montreal Gazette and is still on-line at:- http://www.exn.ca/Stories/2000/03/22/05.asp

Wow!!! Oh, John, Susan, that's fantastic!! I'm so happy for you both!! (A bit belated, I know!!) I had no idea!! Well, my husband and I met via computer dating. Perhaps that's a bit similar! We talked on the phone several times. I really liked his voice. And, even though we were strangers, there were no "pregnant pauses" in our conversation. Another good sign. And, he's from Toronto and a Lightfoot fan!! Wowee! So, John, what were you doing living in England at the time and what made you decide to come to America instead of Susan going there to live after you were married? I just love love stories and hearing how people met.
