Gordon Lightfoot was once asked to name a memorable vocal performance out of all the artists that had recorded his songs. He picked Glen's version of "The Last Time I Saw Her face." Quite a tribute when you consider all of the artists that recorded his material.

Adele ripped this off almost note for note. Chords and melody. Grrrrr...

Only version I had heard before this (except my own smile ) was Roy Clark's. He had a pretty big hit with it. Roy plays guitar a lot better than he sings, but I liked his version too.

Dave, that rendition of Adele's was terrible, IMO. Tracy, loved the song, and it's the very first time I heard it.

Don, never heard Roy's rendition, and would love to hear you perform that song - I know you would do a fantastic job with it.

All the best,

Gary cool

Yup - nothing new there. Seems a waste.
