Hi folks I grew up in Gordon's hometown of Orillia, Ontario, so when he passed away in May, it felt personal. I've had this arrangement rolling around in my head since then, and finally got around to recording it. No overdubs, 100% live: voice, Chapman Stick, and live-looping using Ableton Live.
For the nerds out there: Ableton allows you to automate the recording/overdubbing/stopping/starting of loops on a timeline for hands/feet-free looping. You can also automate the FX. I have a click track in my ears to keep me in line. Enjoy!

A very special cover too. Well done. I greatly enjoyed listening to that.
