Char has e-mailed me pair of scans from the recent Hamilton Spectator article.I have found an accomodating and (to me anyway) pretty easy to use free web site offering a neat photo album feature with a built in thumbnail/caption system AND most importantly for the internet/computer challenged Char an easy-to-use file upload arrangement!!
see the pictures at either:- http://www.johnfowles.zoomshare.com/...27s%20pictures
or below

Char contrived to cut the caption off short but I would guess that this is an old stock picture similar to the one on the cd jewel case back (see pic from recent ebay auction below)??

Thinks does that say in the lower left hand corner "photo circa 1967??" Guess I'll know shortly!!!


Note the copy of Harmony that the man is proudly displaying.
I will add an addendum soon to my existing picture posting topic on the small talk forum
(or I may write a tutorial to upload to the lightfoot sction of my web site)
(either way I promise to try to make it easy to follow so that hopefully even Char will be able to set up and use such a free site to in future display her own scans and pictures: who knows she might also learn to cut her clippings square including their complete captions in future too!)
edited for typos and to add jewel case pic

Looks like the title to No. 4 has changed, no ?

Bill

I guess it sounds nicer than Like A Raptor

John john john....
you crack me up! The caption under the photo of Gord is complete - that's it - ain't no more..
the other was posted with two toddlers clamouring around me and the page got twisted a bit cuz it was a whole page from the paper...
I know how to post to OFOTO and a couple of other sites....the Rogers one was wayyyyyy toooooo complicated for a pea brain like me...

So is the song No Mistake About It the same song as Like A Raptor or was there a change in the song list?

Same song Brink. Just re-named.

For those who may not know the story behind this tune, Gord was debuting the song in some of his concerts in 2002 before being felled by illness. The working title back then was Like a Raptor. The lyric, "She moves like a raptor..." is still in the chorus, but so is "No mistake about it..." I think Gord just decided, as BillW pointed out, that it sounds better for the title of the song.
