Just a few words of appreciation for a still living artist.

After all these many years, "Early Morning Rain" (played loudly) still tugs at my soul. Also, being a Michigander, so too does, "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald". Great talent.

Lightfoot tours every winter (it gets cold in Toronto). Better go soon, he’s not getting any younger. My brother was in a band with his keyboard player in the 60s, he’s still in the band and touring(the keyboard player not my brother).

You can watch 90 minute biography made in the lastvyesr of his career, music, and life on the CBC GEM app

Gordon Lightfoot - Restless

Saw him here in Vancouver, BC back in the mid 70's and it was magical.

Back in the day there were so many singer/songwriters that almost better live than on record. Such a strong voice and so many great songs.

I saw him a couple of months ago in Door County, WI. He was very gracious and funny, and there were many times during which there were very few dry eyes in the house; he's getting up there. He couldn't hit the high notes and his voice didn't have the same booming quality it did back in the day, but I'm very glad I got to see him again.

I saw Gordon Lightfoot in 1982 at Jones Hall in the museum district downtown Houston, beautiful pie shaped seating venue with plush seating that an usher took you to your seat, The show was great, he covered much of his catalog and shared some insight as well. It was a memorable event for me and my wife to be. I bought the tickets knowing his work but wasn't sure my wife would enjoy, she did. same time I bought the GL tickets at Ticketmaster, I bought tickets for Hall and Oates (for her), B.B. King and Bobby Bland with Millie Jackson and Doobie Brothers. Enjoy the music

I'm going to hear the Houston Symphony Orchestra perform Stravinsky's "The Rite of Spring" there next month.
