[yamahonkawazuki]

@ZClark2007 wow. i just found out terry clements just passed on into musical heaven :(, that was a hard person to replace

Gordon is one of my all time favorites..I doubt he will be traveling much anymore..I see him slipping a bit and sad to say it shows in this video. His voice is not strong as it was years past.

I think Gordon has accepted retirement opposed to doing shows on the road.

There appears to be no one with the magic he captures in his songs.

He is doing something like 70 concerts this year and is already scheduled for 4 in 2010. I think he will be doing this for as long as he can (and at least a few more years)!

[yamahonkawazuki]

@Manzanita949 Aye. i will completely understand when he parks hte bus. but am seeing him for the second time on teh 17th of march. met him after the show. hte guy is GOLD. a class act.

Wow, this is great. i just wrote, recorded, and posted a song called "Blackberry Wine" on my youtube channel. Had no idea it was already a song; I like it.

I have a very pleasant memory of this song, and was very pleased when I saw you had posted the song here. It was a good number of years ago now, at a location called Valley Forge Music Fair in Pennsylvania. Valley Forge Music Fair no longer exists. During intermission, I left a note on stage for him and his band asking if they would perform it which they did!! That is not only a favorite memory, but definately one of my all time favorite songs of his!! Thank you so much for sharing it!!

This is an enjoyable, tucked away gem! He is performing it a lot when he tours thankfully. I heard him perform this in Concord, NH in August, '06.
