VRAIMENT EXCELLENT.......VRAIMENT

[bofustjohnson]

john garza rules this cover....

i would love to hear a better quality recording of this

great voice

perfect guitar

i guess crycrycry is the holy grail for this song, but i'm not so sure

john lays it out to an afternoon empty house..... as though he were headlining SoundStage....

did i say great voice

and he conveys all the emotion, all the sadness of that tragic loss

crycrycry has that wonderful backup, that so ties in w/ the images

like to see/hear john garza w/ that edit

Terrrific version. Goose bumps.

[EDMCD22]

A more intensely personal version than some others, more a sense of desperation in a man who, even as he slips away, keeps being brought back by his need for the absolution he can never find. "...but they cursed me...I'm bound to wander..I'm bound away..."

[NSResponder]

Nicely done.

Love this song, by Canadian James Keelahgan.

As a 22-year old university student, I had a 70-man crew in a park in Saskatchewan. I was faced with directing these men against a forest fire that threatened our park when the "Super" was away.

Young, and scared shitless, I mustered the crew and equipment and took it on. As a team, with the help of locals, we stopped the fire before it took the park.

Never had the sad outcome of this song, but I often reflect.

This song has always "teared me up".

I first heard this this past summer at my guard school, basic wildland firefight training. One of the guys on my crew played this song with us all just listening. It was the quietest I've heard heard any group of people. God bless Wag Dodge and those who fell.

[UbiDuboi]

he does a great version

[UbiDuboi]

happened in the 40s? august 49?

[sebius1980]

amazing,thnx for sharing this record with us!

[UbiDuboi]

August of, what was it?--1949?

[UbiDuboi]

i love john garza

no one who is there is listening, but the professional plays, and does his best--for the likes of me i guess

[OldStump]

Amen to that

[UbiDuboi]

this a good song

and a better story

I first heard this song on the Via train going from Toronto to Vancouver. We were going through Sioux Lookout (North-western Ontario). The man beside me gave me his iPod and told me that I had to listen to the song. I ended up listening to it several times and I've been in love with it ever since. This version is just beautiful.

[robindavies24]

Great, great performance, of the gigs I,ve been to this would be the performance we all would be taking about on the way home Well done

[UbiDubi1A]

this is the most beautiful song, and he does the best version after the composer's.

[jamaithan]

Wow! This is one of my all time favorite songs. Keelaghan is incredible, and I love the Cry, Cry, Cry version, but this is equally breathtaking. What a voice. Thanks!

[carsonsheir]

This is a very good job of doing the song. I heard the Richard Shindell version and fell in love and I almost always hate to hear my fav songs done by other people but you did the song justice.

[johnnygnote]

I played first and people were just starting to show up. The plight of the Solo Musician at big concerts.

[adeefeinstein]

John - very nicely done. Forget the audience. I could see that you were totally in the zone...Great ending!

[clwacdc]

why was there no audiance?

[kkwycoff]

Great voice, and excellent performance of this song.

[rlpniew]

Nice rendition. Not as good as the Cry,Cry,Cry version, but that's to be expected. Good performer.
