Jessie Joe...
You've been doing such a great job blessing us with your treasure trove of videos relating to Gordon. I wonder if somewhere in your treasure chest you might have a copy of the 70's
Kenny Rogers and the First Edition Show Rolling on the River which became Rollin the second year. I know it was shot in Toronto and was an hour long in Canada -30 minutes in the states. On one of the shows the Kenny and the First edition did a great Lightfoot medley.
At one time I had it on cassette taped from the TV. but it's long gone now..
I don't know how many remember that show.
Thanks again for all the great video memories.

No KHester I dont have any Kenny Rogers VHS/DVD or anything else for that matter.
But I do remember seeing a program where Kenny said something like...As far as poets are concern Gordie Lightfoot is a genius... And that is something I never forgot, but just about the only thing I remember of that show that was probably in the late 60's early 70's.
I really did like Kenny Rogers & The First Edition, Kenny playing Bass guitar & he had great music in those days compare to the Kenny who became a Country Artist... IMO ! :)

Thanks again Jessie.
Yes i play all the instruments, as with all the songs that i write and record.
I'm really a guitarist and singer[in dire need of a real band].
I'm a pretty good lead guitarist and mandolin player, but by no means a virtuoso.
"Sometimes I Wish"!
Press on...

I'll never forget my time spent after the show, hangin with my favorite band!
