Grew up listening to this guy a lot, my parents loved him. So many timeless classics, RIP

no way. absolutely love if you could read my mind.

RIP

nooo my boy. I've been listening to him a ton lately tbh, in terms of folk legends he is #2 right behind Dylan for me. Really glad my wife and I got to see him live (for the first and only time) just a few months back. He was looking old and frail but would also joke about that. RIP

RIP to an absolute legend. Definitely one of my favorite folk artists, and played a key role in developing my current musical taste.

such a huge RIP. legend

very sad to hear. my dad always said he was one of the best lyricists ever, put him above Dylan even. gonna jam Sundown today. great album if you haven’t heard

rip king

My parents loved him. RIP : (

One of Eddie Vedder biggest influences.

Godspeed, Gordon. RIP.

one of the greatest of all time

Shit. Guy lived a long time and had a great career. So many jams. Great lyricist. RIP.

damn.....RIP

Fare thee well. Really glad my mom and I got to see him last year. He was pretty comfortable with his age, not unlike what butt. described. "If You Could Read My Mind" is seminal in a discography with many great songs, RIP

Yeah, If You Could Read My Mind is truly timeless. A top 3 for Gord I'd say. I always thought Steel Rail Blues was super underrated

I went into town for one last round and gambled my ticket away,

now the big steel rail won't carry me home to the one I love

Great tune indeed.
