I'd travel anywhere to see JP..thanks for your hospitality.
Mr. JP Cormier shows the beauty, kindness and emotion of our beloved, Stompin' Tom Conner, who my deceased Dad & I at a young age, listened and danced to Stompin' Tom Conners records, it was the 70's and into the 80's but Dad & I still listened to them and loved them!! Thank you Mr. Cormier for your wonderful tributle!
And with that eclectic lyric he just made all of us an honorary part of the band!
I'm not a Canadian, but I love these songs. J.P. is an incredible musician. GT
Wife bawling listening to Wawa. Incredible song. So good.
Magnificent sounding guitar.
The man sang this last night at Rankin, ON. Great show. No such thing as 'mailing it in'.
A lovely tribute to a True Canadian Hero!
Amazing performance by JP Cormier Much respect and RIP Stompin Tom WOW everythings better in Canada including Country Music,Keith Kimmey in USA Hearts in Canada
This is sensational! Thanks for posting. Wow. We are so incredibly lucky!
I just saw JP with Dave Gunning at the Edmonton Folk Festival last weekend. They were fantastic. My son and I caught every performance. Amazing musicians and wonderful performers.
awesome to hear the east-coast style in jp voice, grew up listening this style music. stays deep in your heart.
Great memories He was my favorite singer..by far May he rip
Superb! And that is as descriptive as I can be. Thank you for both songs but House of Plywood is way up There!
Wawa is my home town. What a great performance.
JP is an awesome talent
There is nothing liking, sitting around the kitchen table which is where everything happens in a Newfoundland household. You get 2, 3 5 guys with guitars 🎸 a fiddle. Oh did I mention that there could be a few beers he said laughingly. But not a better time could be had. Family, friends and relatives and anyone who happened to drop by. All were always welcome and all were fed. A wonderful province that I am proud to say thanks and where I am from.
JP absolutely brilliant 👏.
Simply GREAT music!!!!
Jp, stunning. Well done 👏.
Thank you, Mr.
Good stuff. Some of the best and worthwhile music going.
Beautiful 👏👏❤❤

My aunt Mary Mcintyre did 70 concerts with Stompin Tom in 1990, and a 1991 6wk tour as well. I will have to follow up with her on this one, as I am sure she will have some great stories from that time.

90 percent of human beings are simpleton fools. Due to this, 3 minute 4 chord 5 note melody bullshit songs are all that people want. Real talent gets buried because it's too sophisticated to truly hit people. They can't comprehend it.

@@vzeller I've started playing music such as Doc Watson etc...in small venues (my favorite places to play). Audiences are flabbergasted hearing this kind of music...I enjoy telling stories of Doc whenever feasible....I spent 5 long years practicing this music before performing. This Canadian gentleman in this video is outstanding BTW! 👍

Glad to say we have a very good friend in common,...Gills Plante. We became friends at the Hank Snow Tribute about 15 years ago, that I’ve been part of since 1997, now held in Liverpool. What a great player!

Wow, and I thought Ricky LaFleur just came up with a made-up name to get away from the cops in TPB. The more you know.

you know what they say about opinions huh? Sure glad Jp wont be listening to yours. Sometimes the right thing to do is keep your opinions to yourself if its only you that finds value in them. Your just rude. You dont know where the song came from? Did you bother to watch the video? Did you not read the description or are you only here to trash him?

It truly is unfortunate that you will go through life as the example of ignorance has an opinion. Dave Gunning is a fine musician and a gentleman and you should not dishonour him with such trash talking about someone he respects. I expect you to apologise to him on this forum.
Nice!....................................
