Thank you kindly Josh.

[eric000B]

Great cover, good job guys! The vocals might be a bit more harder although I think the mellow style fits the song perfectly.

BTW: was Lenny ordering 3 beer at 1:51? :-)

[7761864]

@eric000B

It was 4 beers, and thanks.

[drummerkid71]

Jeeze.. I love this guy! He's my favorite artist on youtube!!! Uncanny how remarkably similar he is to Gord LF. Kudos...many!

[7761864]

@drummerkid71

Thank you kindly.

[analyzingfunny]

good, but he (Gordon) is singing about 60% louder. Try it! he really is...

[7761864]

@analyzingfunny

Thanks, but you lost me there.

[ProfMichaelMacD]

Absolutely FANTASTIC version of the song! Nice!

[7761864]

@ProfMichaelMacD

Thank you kindly.

[chrisshankle]

very well done Mr. Lightfoot should be proud that there is some one who can carry on...!

[7761864]

@chrisshankle

Thanks for listening.

[WhiteLakeDan]

I was at a Gordon Lightfoot concert just a couple months ago. He's still got it in spades and this version is just an awesome tribute to the man himself. (BTW you guys look like hippies who forgot to "grow up". Good on ya !!!)

[7761864]

@WhiteLakeDan

Thanks Dan. We appreciate it.

[murchadha1]

[7761864]

@apiscesguy1

Thank you very much.

[uncatila]

sit those boys down so they can get about their instruments. the guitar work is just as important as the singing

[catbrush123]

You guys are just toooo good. I could listen forever. :-)

[PrimNpearLs]

Wonderful version of the song....great job!

[7761864]

@PrimNpearLs

[7761864]

@cher1058

Thank you kindly Cher.

[BrokenArrow1967]

Fantastic rendition! Incredible sound quality and perfect delivery. I really enjoyed this.

[7761864]

@TheLivingroomSinger

Thank you kindly sir.

[TheDandl]

You are a most talented artist and you really do Lightfoot justice. Great voice and excellent guitar playing...!! I stood up and gave you a standing ovation after this song.

[7761864]

[7761864]

@LBGem

I have only posted a couple of originals, but Lenny has quite a few. You can see them at Bob Woolcock's channel.

Thanks for listening.

[daveyphotos]

This is nothing shy of pure magic! You are a very talented musician! I got goosebumps listening to this amazing cover, of a Lightfoot classic! Keep 'em coming, Brian!

[7761864]

@daveyphotos

Thanks very much.

[joevs21001]

WOW. Incredible. I sat with my eyes closed and truly thought this was Gordon Lightfoot. Awesome job. Fantastic. You should go out on tour as a Gordon Lightfoot Tribute show. Gordon's fantastic but his voice has gotten a little rough around the edges over the years and due to his age. You sound like Gordon as a younger man.

[7761864]

Thanks Rocketman, I appreciate it. I don't know what's up with tux junkie. Maybe he had a tough paper route when he was a kid.

[rocketman767]

You are a great singer, sir! Although you sound little bit like Gordon Lightfoot,

I don't know why @tuxjunkie thinks you faked it? You can clearly tell it's your own voice and recording.

[ordepix]

Brian and band: I am completely thrilled of your superb quality. Wonderful and balanced sound, warm voice, tempo ...everything is excellent...ah and I envy your Martin too. Hope to keep on watching jobs like this.

Pedro

[blendincoffee]

That is absolutely fantastic! I do believe that is the BEST cover I have ever heard from anyone/group!!

[7761864]

@blendincoffee

Thank you very much.

[rogeralexander7]

Very Nice...the accent somes through just right...

[jezzaknight1274]

really good version of a classic song. well done.

[7761864]

@jezzaknight1274

Thank you kindly.

[beaverbrook666]

WOW!!!!!!

I JUST HAD SOME ONE CLOSE THEIR EYES AND LISTED THEY COULD'NT BELIEVE IT WHEN THEY OPEN THEM,I SHOW EVERYONE YOU MUSIC!!!

THANK YOU FOR THE INSPIRATION BROTHER MUSIC!!!!

[7761864]

@beaverbrook666

Thanks for listening

[beaverbrook666]

WOW!!!!!!

[parkerguns]

Absolutely the finest job on this song I have ever heard . You are fantastic and I real class act.

[tuxjunkie]

You're a fraud...I can't believe you fooled so many people. Come on folks...does it not seem odd that he sounds exactly like Gord by hardly moving his mouth and hiding behind the mic. Frak...fake as all hell.

[lwood101]

@tuxjunkie Get a life you moron.

[7761864]

@tuxjunkie

Apparently, I've fooled one person into thinking I'm faking it.

Thanks for the classy comment.

[francovance1]

@tuxjunkie You need help!

[bjswcs]

With that performance, you just brought me back to 1970 and kissing Mary Tapp down by the hockey rink....I never even felt the cold....lol

Fantastic version boys!!!!

[7761864]

@bjswcs

Ah, we all have our Mary's....

Thanks Doug.

[MrNormsHGW]

Very nice job, you guys sound great....

[pekra33]

A fantastic cover of my favourite GL-song.

[7761864]

@pekra33

Thanks. Mine too.

[krohawk1]

Great cover!

[7761864]

@krohawk1

Thanks very much.

[badfinger11123]

PERFECTLY DONE!

Great work guys!

[7761864]

@badfinger11123

Thanks very much.

[ttaurus393]

Hey Brian! I just wanted to let you know this is so goo I posted it on my face book.

[ttaurus393]

It was like listening to the record wow!! you guy's Rock!!! I loved it, I might cover this song also I dont think Ill do it as good as you Brian LOL but still I might try.

[7761864]

@ttaurus393

I'm looking forward to hearing it Stephen.

Thanks

[BrotherHugo500]

This song really means a lot to me, and listening to this brought back some sad memories, you guys really did it justice. Thankyou for sharing your talent with us.

Hugo - Quebec

[7761864]

@BrotherHugo500

Thanks for listening Hugo.

[Fstpicker]

Wow!! You have the best GL likeness in your voice I've ever heard in my life!! Wow!! A 10+!!!!!!!

[7761864]

@Fstpicker

Thank you kindly.

[dllewiszz]

Stopping by this evening for yet another view/listen. This is so amazing. Thank you for sharing your love of GL's music and your superb talent with us.

[7761864]

@dllewiszz

Thanks Dave, I appreciate it.

[Silvermac27]

Well done Brian,great to see you with a professional job,now we can really hear your beautiful voice..All the best

[7761864]

@Silvermac27

Thank you. Much appreciated.

[conifergreen]

Wow, I am blown away. I have been a Lightfoot fan for over 40 years and you guys do this song real justice.Your voice is amazing Brian. I hope Gordon has seen this.

[conifergreen]

I have been a Gordon Lightfoot fan for over 40 years and you do his music justice. Thank you so much.

[7761864]

@conifergreen

Thank you very much.

[boelchen]

28 like - 0 dislike :-) you did a great job!

At last, a professional recording studio that meets your talent.

Looking forward for more. Did you ever try "A Tree to Weak to Stand"?

Greetings from Switzerland

[7761864]

@boelchen

It's a good song that I'll put up here one day.

Thanks for the kind words .

[lightfootfan]

Oh my goodness Brian.I'm blown away..this is so so so lovely!

What a beautiful rendition of this classic Lightfoot tune. The three of you are wonderful together!

I'm loving the total 'hoser' plaid shirt to compliment the great Canadian that Lightfoot is..although I can't recall ever seeing him wear one!

It would be so great if you could make it to Massey in May-I know James & Ron would be over the moon if you did.

This is one song that Gord always nails in concert. Always makes me tear up!

[7761864]

@lightfootfan

Thank you very much Char. I do appreciate it. It was nice to have the opportunity to play with such great musicians, and in Bob's studio.

Still mulling a trip to Massey, if I can pull it off.

[lighthead2toe]

This is wonderful. You would have to be well snared into the dedicated category of Gordon Lightfoot classics in order to put something like this together.

The voice is the closest to Lightfoot's that I've ever heard and the musicianship in this production is second to none.

You deserve more than you give.

[7761864]

@lighthead2toe

Thank you sir. That means a lot to me coming from you.

[hochbob]

Great cover of a great song.  Thanks.

[Schraube200]

Hey Brian, WOW!!! I'm so proud that I did a song with you before!

Cheers from Bavaria, Joe

[7761864]

@Schraube200

Thanks Joe. Let's do another one!

[karenmuenchen]

just WONDERFUL !!! What an amazing voice with so much feeling in it !!! You all are very talented !!! all stars from me !!! Karen from München, Germany :-))

[opus62]

THIS was worth the wait! congrats guys on a sweet rendition and tasty mix, Bob...

i love the key choice and have not seen a capo on a bass...what a diff the warmth of a bass adds to a Lightfoot cover....the leads were very interesting and appealing...i always try dig for constructive criticism but came up empty, A1 stuff

brain, you're the master...and you are more clothed with each studio performance, it's basically the opposite of strip poker:)

[7761864]

@opus62 Thanks Jim.

I didn't know "Let it Ride" would be a keeper, or I would have dressed in formal flannel.

[gabiangelfinley]

Hey Big Daddy Bri,

This is certainly the best so far.

Next time I am out there I’ll have to copy the original AVI file so I can watch on my big screen TV.

Thanks old friend,

David

[brianbdp1]

Brian, This has always been my favorite of Gordon Lightfoot. Your cover of this is beyond words-I would give it an A+! Also the musicians assisting you are fantastic, I hope you can do more work with them, you guys are great togeather!  Brian-Indiana

[ROEU812]

Just when I think you can't do any better ,you prove me wrong ! AWESOME, Just AWESOME! So much emotion and so much feeling...Thanks for sharing the music with us.

Roe

[7761864]

@ROEU812

Thanks very much Roe.

[dk2bflo]

Excellent job, guys! It's great when you have a chance to play with other musicians, especially in a studio setting. I think Mr. Lightfoot would really enjoy this!

[7761864]

@dk2bflo

Having great musicians helping you out makes all the difference.

Thanks.

[thenewhorizons]

Outstanding. You guys are awesome! Love all your stuff Brian!

Wow! Great job all around - Bravo!

[7761864]

@justjoanie67

Thank you Joanie.

[dllewiszz]

Back in '71 I used to listen to this one over and over with the headphones, and I became very familiar with everybody's part -- and you guys have just nailed this thing like it's never been covered before! To play it so well, in every way, makes us GL fans so very thankful for your efforts. When you get a gig, we're going to have to charter a bus and head out west to hear you. Seriously.

[7761864]

@dllewiszz

Thanks very much Dave. We appreciate the props.

[MrNormsHGW]

Very nice, I seen the one you did a few years back too, quality here is real good and the 3 of you sound great.

[7761864]

@WednesdayAddams133

[7761864]

@nylawyer55

Thanks Rob. I do appreciate it.

[jrsn2music]

Lightfoot's music is timeless. It's great to see it performed so flawlessly and with respect. I'm sure Gord would be proud to see this! Thanks for the fine video!

John

[7761864]

@jrsn2music

Thanks for listening John.

[readyeddy101]

Brian that was superb. It was a haunting performance by you all. Your vocals as I have said many times are just fantastic. It is so good that you are recording in the studio environment. Your talent very much warrants it. Tremendous my friend. I so look forward to your performances. Big thumbs up to all of you !!!

[7761864]

Thanks.

[7761864]

@musique2a

Thank you sir.

[abdoncarlos]

Muy buena interpretación. Muchisimas gracias especialmente a ti Brian.

Lo único que a faltado es un poco más de nervio a la lead guitar, es decir

algo más similar al estilo de Terry Clements.

[7761864]

@abdoncarlos

Muchas gracias DonCarlos. No teniemos ningun minuto de practica, y no hay manera para subir los leveles. Fue de una vez.

Gracias amigo.

[shandy3791]

WoW!!! This is so perfect in every way! Kudos to the three of you!

[SusanRandt]

Very nice gentlemen!!

[7761864]

@SusanRandt

Thank you very much.

[NorthPost]

What a joy to listen to! You achieved an amazing sound here! Please keep it up, we're loving it. Need to hear the picking and vocals of your #2 a bit better, though, sounds like his harmony is spot on. When are you taking this on the road?

[aplacetohideaway]

Absolutely stunning, Brian. I can't put into words what it feels like to hear these beautiful, breathtaking songs being played anew with such class and respect, and a voice so beautiful. Straight to the heart, this one. Incredible...

[7761864]

@aplacetohideaway

Thank you Sharron. It was fun.

[7761864]

@aplacetohideaway

Thank you kindly Sharron.
