Wilkie Gives a Musical History Lesson Wilkie Gives a Musical History Lesson

Canadian Railroad Trilogy, by Gordon Lightfoot, is really a history lesson in six minutes. It could have been a book written by Pierre Berton. It's got all the politics, greed, sweat and suffering all set against the background of the wild Canadian frontier. High school students should listen to song repeatedly. I hoipe I did Gordy justice. He's a Canadian icon.

There are so many Cat Stevens songs I love to play, but I chose one that's not likely to be on YouTube. It's the last cut off my favourite Cat Stevens album, Catch Bull at Four. If you've never heard it before, it takes a couple of listens to apreciate it. Enjoy!!

I Love NY - A New Neil Young Cover by Wilkie I Love NY - A New Neil Young Cover by Wilkie
Posted by: wilkiecoco

Video duration: 259 seconds

Of all the Neil Young songs to play, of course I didn't want to do anything obvious, like "Old Man" or "Needle and the Damage Done" so here's the newest of the new, a song called "the Painter", from Neil's latest acoustic album, "Prarie Wind". This song has quickly become one of my favourites to play.

Lover\ Lover's Cross by Wilkie
Posted by: wilkiecoco

Video duration: 180 seconds

I first heard this song when Sharyn played it for me way back when. Sharyn passed away ten years ago this month and not a day goes by that we don't think of her or take pleasure in watching her children grow up. This song always reminds me of her and I play it slow, the way she did when we were young.

Hazy Shade of Wilkie Hazy Shade of Wilkie

There are certain songs I've never tried because...well, I'm afraid. Hazy Shade of Winter was one of them. I never thought I would ever be able to play it. I just learned it 2 days ago. It happens to be my favourite Simon and Garfunkel tune. I've tried to copy Paul Simon's guitar work form the 1967 Carnegie Hall concert. Enjoy. Oh, and feel free to comment on my stylish new cap!
