Aside from the more obvious John Denver songs, this was one of my favorites: |

I heard Denny Matthews say once on a Royals broadcast that Lightfoot is his favorite musician. And yeah, he's frickin' GREAT.

Maybe. Hope he is alive by the time he is supposed to be there.
I like older performers. They come out-do their music-be done. Boston many years ago played 3 hours and as done. No break. Eagles took one break. Phil Collins-did not move from the place where he limped on stage.

I also saw Jackson Browne a few months ago and he was also very good. So glad I got to see him perform at least once before one of us ceased to exist. Last year I was lucky enough to see Van Morrison one more time and what a great show he put on. He can still bring it as well as anyone. I love me some Van the Man. One of my two or three favorites all time. It just goes to show that advancing age doesn't always diminish a great musician's ability to perform at a high level. They may have to adapt but when they still know what they are doing it can be a powerful thing. I've always loved the old blues masters like John Lee Hooker, Sonny Boy Williamson, Jimmy Witherspoon, etc. without ever once thinking how old they were, just that they were still killing it. |

I swear Gordon Lightfoot played in Duluth on an anniversary of the sinking.
