I understand that whenever Gord and the band perform "Spanish Moss" these days (including 30Sep2011), it segues into "Shadows" as a medley. How is it done? Is there a video or audio recording anywhere?

3 set lists from last week - No Spanish Moss leading to Shadows at all.

He does it once in a while tho - set lists @ http://www.lightfoot.ca/110326.htm
I can't recall exactly how he eases it into but probably just stops, takes a beat and starts up again. Not sure at what point in the lyrics tho...Anyone remember??

Thanks, Char and Vickie Moosedog, for answering my questions. The YouTube video shows Gord blends the two choruses of "Spanish Moss" and drops a couple of its verses, then goes straight into performing "Shadows" in full.
