He's a badass.  Who else kills monsters with a crowbar and doesn't say a damn thing?

Lightfoot gets a thread about twice a month.



I prefer the Miley threads.

Hey, the guy likes Gordon Lightfoot.
My favorite line from that song is, "Fellas it's been good to know ya". I just started appreciating his music a couple years
ago when I was looking for this song. I made a Pandora Gordon Lightfoot channel to find it. After listening to fifteen
other songs of his before I got to this one, I thought "this guys good". I want to get a greatest hits CD.

One of the things my father left to me when he passed was a hell of a music collection.

 



I appreciate it every chance I get.

He's old, and decades of hard boozing and lots of pills have taken their toll.



When I saw him at Massey Hall in '91, he put on a hell of a show.



Just him and his guitars. It was awesome.



His version of 'Me and Bobby McGee' is excellent.

I hear his music and I immediately think about summer vacations, driving to Kalkaska MI in the back of our family's Econoline, Gordon Lightfoot's Greatest Hits playing on the 8-Track.

This song seems even more appropriate for him at that point in his life, than it did back in '74

Not to familiar with 'ol Gordon Lightfoot but I will be. I need to get some of his music. I saw a piece about him on a CBS Sunday morning show and now I want to listen to his music.

Not my style of music, but I get an ear worm when I hear Edmund Fitzgerald.

Saw  him  in   '72 . At  the  top  of  his  game  he  was . One  of   the  best  shows  I've  seen . It's  tough  seeing  him  in  such  rough  shape  but  all  things  considered
he's  lucky  to  still  be  w/us . He  lived   in  an  era  of  ultra-talented   people , him  included .

THIS for sure. My dad passed away at 70, and probably didn't party half as hard as Gordon. God bless him.
