A young Gordon Lightfoot sings with the Andrews Orchestra at the Muskoka Sands Pavilion in Gravenhurst, circa 1955. Lightfoot was told he could sing for the band if he learned to play the drums as well. He was singing - and drumming - for the band about two weeks later. Others in the photo include: John Coull, trumpet, Len Brain, alto sax , Al Metcalf, tenor sax, Chris Andrews, bass, Anne Andrews, piano. (Photo courtesy of Evelyn Andrews)
