[reygato]

Very sad Very True Song but GOOD COVER thanks

[1975knuckles]

lol

Don't quit your day job!

No offense,but if you cant cover a cover a cover,don't!

[jrushmen]

Taking on Circle of Steel took balls my friend . Good job ! It's a hard song to replicate.

[emeraldshowersrp2]

I'd like to see your classical pieces also.

[ichman1]

very nice

[BassPlayerSusan]

Along with Emerson, Lake & Palmer's "I Believe in Father Christmas", one of the saddest Christmas songs ever. I cry every time I hear it.

[mdumas43073]

Don't forget Stan Rogers' "First Christmas".

[Mikester61]

One of the saddest Christmas songs ever, well done. hanks

[mauranius]

A nice cover, though you miss a few notes with your voice, if you don't mind me saying ;), still I admire your finger picking skills as well as the skill to play and fingerpick simultaniously.

It's a difficult song, but perhaps you can listen to the song again, since not all the tones in your voice where correct (not critisism, just a point you could work on )

Overall a well covered song :)

[Sueski2]

Wonderful! This is such a great song.

But by the grace of God go I.

[Hammerlix]

Thanks

[dawrr]

Awesome job! I know how hard it is to try to sing and fingerpick, and you did great!!!

[BarnacleEd]

Very nice...do you happen to have a tab of the version you played?

[shaykai]

Great cover! I couldn't imagine trying to sing while finger picking something like this!

[jaybob44]

Thank you so much for the very kind words, Shaykai. Gordon makes playing the guitar fun! Ceers, J

[jaybob44]

Typing in bed on the laptop is harder than playing guitar to a G.L. song. That should have said: Cheers! lol

[beauluke63]

Hey Jaybob...I am a transplanted Canadian living in rural illinois. Have seen Gordon a few times at Massey Hall. You do a fine version of one of his best tunes. Thanks !

[jaybob44]

That is much too kind. But I will humbly accept. Thank you! Is he just not the greatest? I have never been fortunate enough to see him. But he's been with me for most of my life. Awesome man. He makes every Canadian proud, I would think.

[blabblab1212]

Excellent guitar!!

[jaybob44]

Hey there, Blabblab1212! Thank you so much. J

[jeanandbilly]

Well done jaybob.I love GL's songs.Takes me back to my childhood.When I was a kid my late Dad use to sing us GL's songs.'Knotty Pine' & 'Daylight Katy'often tucked me to sleep.Thanks jaybob!Miss ya Dad...

[jaybob44]

Jeanandbilly, what a sweet connection to draw. And to hear someone else putting out the GLs just makes us all sutured at the heart. Yes? Missing your dad, therefore, along with you to this extent. J

[theUFCguy]

Nicely done. I've always been a fan of Gordon Lightfoot and you do a good job capturing his work.

[jaybob44]

Thanks, UFCguy. When I hear his songs, it brings me back to where I was in my life at that time. And this is one way to keep in touch with all that.

[mmcs122]

Nice job on this one, J/J! ;)

[jaybob44]

Thank you, mmcs122-M-M!

[LaTromboniste]

Again, splendid cover! One of my absolute favorites. The part in the beginning with the flute-like instrument, I transposed to play on my ocarina. It's quite pretty, actually. :)

[jaybob44]

Ocarina. Nice. That's not an instrument you see played much these days. Way to go. And thank you!

[celticnooneson]

Super cover! Thanx

[jaybob44]

Wow. Thanks, Celtic!

[Rickshepherd]

I liked your playing alot! Voice needs some work though, but still good listening, thanks.

[jaybob44]

Agreed on the voice. Will work on that. Thank you for the honest and considerate review.

[AnnieCanada]

Love Gordon Lightfoot~... You have an amazing voice.. very powerful!...

[jaybob44]

Get OUT!, girlfren!!! Prior to this remark, I was your undying fan. Now I am your ever-living fan. Mwuah!

[AnnieCanada]

Love that reply.. You so rock! Love your "girlfren"! and your Mwuah~... :)

[mrBill906]

You know, I enjoyed that very much. Well done !!

[jaybob44]

mrBill906---Why, thank you very much for the kind words.

[typist73]

Excellent. Classical guitar isn't my forte, so I'm doubly impressed!

[jaybob44]

typist73---thank you so much. I am used to playing the narrower steel string, so this was a bit of a change up. I love the sound of nylon, though.

[Rigel66]

Yeah man! Well done Jaybob! Your guitar playing is great! Love the sound of yer picking. And of course a Gordon Lightfoot song seems to be your forte'. Easy 5ver without a doubt! 5*s

[jaybob44]

Thanks, Rigel! You are very encouraging. That's what we are for each other on this show, right? Looking forward to your next one. J

[sapphire314]

I love your voice in this song. You sound fantabulous!

[jaybob44]
