    Hi Gordon, This is your old fan from Belgium. Good to see you, although we have both grow old (and grey) since I first discovered your songs back in the winter of 1974. Take good care of yourself ...

    Johnny Todd was (is) the first song on the first side of the first album...That's long ago and time is cruel to our voices ...please go back and listen to that early perfomance if you can ... Love at first listen...Herring Croon is last song on the second side of the same album...can't hold back the tears ...

    I'm 69 years old, and have been playing your music since I was 23. I " ran into you, " Gordon, on the Clearwater. My accompanist yelled for me "We're on next" I was below decks and came tearing up the stairs. The doorway darkened, and I slammed head first into Gordon Bok! I went tumbling down the stairs, tail over tin cup. I was late and bruised for my first song, but I could say with pride "I ran into Gordom Bok on the Clearwater!" No word of a lie, All five feet of me.

    I last saw him in Sterling CO at the community college in 2013. I was chatting with him afterwards as he gathered up stuff (he had no roadies). One of the regrets of my life is that I did not say, hey, let's go get coffee, or something like that. He is an amazing story teller. And his playing leave me in awe.

  • @jimbrown8313
    @jimbrown8313 2 года назад

    I was introduced to him 40 years ago. I have him in concert about eight times. Words simply unable to express what his, along with Muir and Tricket, music mean to me. I learned from him that I can sing. The is a place for a bass singer.

    I was given a mix tape of Gordon's music in 1990. I was in California . . . the music painted pictures of the New England coast. Now I live in Vermont and have felt the magic of the Maine coast. I like to think Gordon's music had a part in bringing me to my new home.

    So glad to hear these tales! I first knew your music when on a week-long cruise on the "Mercantile" in September 1979 out if Camden harbor. We made it to Isle Au Haut! We had winds from Hurricane Frederic...it was fantastic. And your music made the most indelible mark on me. Decades later am still enjoying! Thank you!

I am a long time admirer and I don't think I'll ever be able to see Gordon perform live, but his music has accompanied me for most of my life and shaped me as a person. It's a real treasure. Peace and take care everyone <3

  • @ljk9910
    @ljk9910 3 года назад

    I recall Carol writing something about having a certain amount of quarters, like energy, to spend in a day. I'm glad she no longer needs to count the quarters! Thank you for this beautiful song.
