Finally got the CD (and vinyl) last night and felt I was okay to give it a listen. Loved it. Loved the rawness of it. It was almost soothing to listen to. His voice was amazing, the lyrics so personal, and the music so Gord. What a beautiful gift he left for all of us.

Sounds like it's a great album -- and my "pre-order" is almost here! Took three months for merchmarkt to ship it, now for some reason Canada Post delivery went Toronto....Calgary, Winnipeg....en route to Ottawa.

Such a senseless tragedy on the Danforth last night. I always think of this area as Gord's old stomping grounds. Walking down there late one night a few months back, I took this pic of the Black Pearl Tattoo Parlour very near where the shooting took place. This is such a great area.

Went down the Danforth on Christmas Eve
'Cause there is something that I just believe
And I believe it permanently
I thought of it so many times that maybe
I walked up to the front door of the
Black Pearl Tattoo Parlour
And I, to put this on my hand forever
For you to see how you have helped me

Finally got this album, has anyone done more detective work besides Kieffer adding Introduce Yerself- Billy Ray?

Here's what I could make out:

My First Girlfriend - Char (his sister)
Love Over Money - The Band
You Me and the B's - Patrick
You Are the Bird - Paula
Snowflakes - Lorna or Laura? (mom or wife? can't make out his handwriting)
Bedtime - Clare
First Person - Edgar
A Natural (Bathouse Again and Again) - Clemens?

The names on the right side:
Joanne
Andrea
Jenn
Josh
Andy
Mike
Jonathan
Ricky
Patrick comes up a few times

I believe one of his daughter’s name is willow which makes me think “The Lake” is about her.

Vinyl on Amazon is down to $17 bucks. Guess I'll finally pick it up and give it a first spin.

Do you mean first spin on vinyl, or first spin altogether?
