It's always a sad day when RP plays a track I love and it turns out spotify doesn't have it :(

Instantly recognisable

Anyone know where to get the album?
 

I just checked on Qobuz - and they have 4 of his albums, but this song is not on those. :-(

It's songs like this that make me so happy to have a synthesizer at my desk for an impromptu jam.

Wow! Heard this before and liked it, but I'm listening with headphones and now I love it. I really enjoy the spiral-like construction of it. The same tune repeating with increasingly richer and better increments. Makes me want to soar. Thanks for playing

When this song started, I thought it was "so and so", but it grew on me by the minute. What a great finale!

Just bumped it to 9 too. A bit like Knopfler at the beginning, but rich and full in the middle!!!

One of my favorite previously unheard tracks here on RP. That is an amazing and joyful sound and talent.

Sadly, Mr. Delorme passed a few years ago in Calgary. His Blue Wave Sessions album is a masterpiece to me.

NICE. Love the chiming strings and slide. A very positive and exuberant track. 
Posted 8 years ago by kingart    [ Reply ]
Never heard of him but wish I had done.  I can hear touches of Mark Knofler - love the lush slide playing too. Sorry he is not around to get our good comments.

Wow - Never even heard of this guy. Not a heck of a lot on him as far as YouTube videos, and what there is sounds rather different than this.
Anyway, I like this.

This is such an awesome song!  It's also extremely rare to find this particular CD on sale anywhere!!!

Bummer!
 Gaye James Delorme (March 20, 1947 – June 24, 2011) was a Canadian songwriter, composer and guitar player. 

Great find Bill! Thanks one more time for introducing me to great music.

Wow! Where did this guy come from? 
Im googling him now! 
Posted 9 years ago by FrankDebbieCote    [ Reply ]
Woah is right.

Lindley meets Landroth meets Duane.

Amazing.

Posted 10 years ago by greig    [ Reply ]
The song isn't anywhere that you can buy, nor is the album available. BUT you can find it on myspace. He has a page there with this and three other tunes ("Borderline", "Bahia" and "Sailor Sailor")

This is technically very good.  He's clearly a talented musician.  That being said, this is background noise to me.  There's nothing here that really gets my attention.

Jimi said you'll never hear surf music again- I see someone disagrees. (NB: Does not apply to FZ's "Lumpy Gravy," which you should play every day, while you pray...)

Posted 12 years ago by mandolin    [ Reply ]

Yup, you're right.  The initial information in front of me last night was incorrect.  He WAS in Calgary and WAS scheduled to play at the Edmonton thing in August.  Thanks for the correction.  As for the snotty tone of your message, I'll leave that alone and go listen to some of Gaye's work instead.

Gaye Delorme passed away today at age 64. He collapsed on stage from a heart attack while doing a sound check at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival in Alberta.  "Angelina" is just one of many songs that showcase his amazing guitar playing.  His CDs "Borderline" and "Blue Wave Sessions" have been among my most played in years.  A bit of trivia: Gaye wrote and played guitar on "Earache My Eye" from Cheech & Chong fame.

Why have I never heard of this guy before Radio Paradise?
Posted 13 years ago by kaybee    [ Reply ]
This is one excellent piece of music!  I hear Knopfler-esque flourishes, but also some clear, clean Craig Chaquico new-age progressions.  It's wonderful.  8, but I'll probably change that to 9 before the song is over.... Love it!!!{#Music}
