Hello, Gordon . . . And The Sun Will Shine : This song, in my opinion, is the closest that you have, as yet, got to a "Bulls Eye" There is a rare haunting quality about this song, and I'm sure that you must know it as well . . . Well done

Just to say thank you for taking part in this year's Fringe Festival on the Budvar Stage. Helped by the excellent weather, this year's Jazz On The Square was the best yet. The gardens were crowded all weekend and feedback has been fantastic. The great atmosphere was created and carried by the music provided by all you fringe artists. We hope you all enjoyed it as much as we did and that you will be back in the future. Thanks again and best wishes for the year

Thanks for putting on the show - really enjoyed it. The Willie Nelson cover Funny How Time Slips Away was superb - maybe better than the original. Let's hope to see you playing a bit more often round here this year!

Hi Gordon, sorry to take so long to reply to you about your disc . . . . . . Anyway, I must say I liked it. I thought Phil's slide playing on Honey, You're Still On My Mind was excellent and the track had a real Bob Dylan / Seasick Steve feel to it

Hello from NYC! - I bet there are few longer time fans than I - since I was a keen follower of the Gremlins around 1965. I well recall the frenzied versions of Got My Mojo Working including that time you smashed the chair at Lyneham Village Hall.

Dear landlord, As I went out one morning, sitting on a barbed wire fence - it's alright ma (I'm only bleeding) -
I dreamed I saw St Augustine stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again.
Night after night down in the groove, knocked out loaded 4th tim e around,
I'll remember you on the road again, like a rolling stone. May you stay forever young, Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum.

Hi Gordon, great to view your website. Lyn and I have always enjoyed your music. As you know I've got two of your CDs and we like listening to them in the car - great driving music. Enjoy watching you with your band too, so get out there and do some MORE. Take care, you old rocker - Steve Kent, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, UK

What a fantastical trip down memory lane - reviving memeories of the last 25 years of a local legend. We would like to see an expanded gallery section and some live action footage. This would complete the Gordon Wood experience.
To many more years of music! - Orville, Dylan and Natallie Matthews, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, UK

I hope you're okay and things are going well for you. Good to see you're still involved in the music. Despite four Greenpeace gigs in Redditch, which went quite well, I finally gave it up around 1994. I guess It became very difficult as I was doing everything on my own - I did not have the same back up as in Chippenham. I still remember your set (with Simroy Harvey) at the Two Pigs in Corsham which was one of the best. Just to say Happy New Year and Good Luck in 2007. I may just drop by the open mic night one Sunday. Regards - Shane Lennon, Worcester, UK

24th December 2006
Hey there, Gordon! Nice to see you got a website at last! Are we to be first in your book? All the very best to you for Christmas and the New Year. We will have to catch you at the Cotswold one Sunday
