Seen him in concert once, great singer.
Now every time I hear The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald I say a little prayer for Jeff, may he rest in Peace. |

I still can't believe the Gordon Lightfoot never even sent out a distress call. Glad Ed Fitzgerald wrote that song.

I've seen him in concert twice at the State Theater in Mpls.
Very good shows. ETA: I still remember sitting in a beanbag chair in 74' listening to "Sundown". |

I love his stuff. I try to post up the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald each year on the aniversary. Sometimes it happens and some times it doesn't.

I LOVE Gordon Lightfoot! Do you guys know where he got the name of the song Carefree Highway?
He was driving north on I-17 from Phoenix Arizona to Flagstaff and there is a road sign of Carefree Highway which is exit 223! This is a regular song around camping trip fires here! |

I had "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" stuck in my head literally from November to February this past winter.

I heard him in concert in Houston a couple of months ago. A lot of great classics, sadly the voice is no longer what it was.

I can't hear that song without thinking of that thread, him, his family, that painting and how many top shelf people I share this sight with. I hope his wife and boy are making a go of things as well as can be expected. |
