Welcome, knightmoves!
First, yes, Gord has a new album coming out shortly after the first of the year (in January or February - no release date yet announced.) It will be called "Twenty", as in his 20th album.
As to his health, he's getting out and around and looking good (see recent posting elsewhere here on Gord pics) but is still very much recovering from past surgery and faces more in the new year. His surgeons are going to try and rebuild his abdomen using muscles from his thighs. At the moment he cannot sing (or at least hold a note more than three seconds, he says) but if this surgery is successful - and it will take several months before they know for sure one way or the other - he plans on touring again in 2005. Needless to say we all have our collective fingers crossed for the doctors, and for Gord's continuing good health. He's concentrating on eating well, building the leg muscles, and strengthening his immunity. Scroll through some of the posts from the last couple of months (Char put up the Globe and Mail article - October 11, I think - great interview.)
