Latest Release
Other Eyes
"After 70 years of staving around this kind land, I know our homeland is never going to survive our sojourn here if we don't learn to hear with other ears, look through other eyes." ~ Gordon
Gordon's newest album views life and the world through the perspective of non-human eyes. Available now at Timberhead Music.
GORDON BOK IN CONCERT REVIEWS
From The Boston Globe: "The music of Maine folk singer Bok is like a universe unto itself, a roughhewn land filled with hardscrabble people, rascals in high places, and a natural world that is both cruel and kind, deadly and nurturing." Read this review and more...
News From Carol:
We have made a great step forward this summer. I have been able to board our sailboat from a dock for the last few years, but going from the boat to a dinghy alongside and especially going from the dinghy to the boat presents some challenges. With the help of our friend Capt. Ed Porter of Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, we devised a hoist involving main and mizzen halyards, a 5-part tackle, and the bosun's chair. Gordon controls the ascent or descent from the sheet winch and it works slick! We choose our days for this maneuver, but coming and going from a mooring is back in the picture.
