Default The great Red Shea...

I loved Red Shea's guitar work long before I knew his name. His lead on Gordon Lightfoot's "If You Could Read My Mind" is absolutely beautiful, and for me one of the finest performances on acoustic guitar, ever. Sadly, Red passed away in 2008, but there will always be GL's early recordings to give testament to Red's great talent and artistry. I'd be interested in hearing from former friends and students of Red's. I've searched the forum and believe some of you did know him.

Thanks.

Gordon Lightfoot, Red Shea and Rick Haynes from a live performance in 1972
