Gordon Lightfoot Tribute

No he did not die, but he has been very sick the last year or so. I have been a fan since the 70's and have often been impressed with his insiteful lyrics and quality music. I know his songs are not for everyone, but I like them! He is a talented writer and musician.

I have seen him several times in concert, and he told some of my friends that we would get together for dinner before his next show here. I think that he and the band liked our enthusiasm during the concert. We had the whole front row and half of the second row. I was looking forward to that, but as things look, perhaps it is not to be. He stopped the concert to autograph an album for me!!! He didn't have to do that, but he cares about the people in the seats. I don't often get that sense from concerts I attend.

There was a Gordon Lightfoot tribute LP released recently with lots of good tracks on it. Give it a listen!

Hey Gordon, thanks for the good times!
