Soon after this topic appeared I decided to search for a copy of one of the Lightfoot bio's and found a great copy of "If you could read his mind". It was only $22 plus shipping.

After reading the book my admiration for Gord, his music, and his drive to get to where he is, went straight up. Sure, there's some negative stuff in there but who doesn't have a bit of bad history in their past? Besides, all that turmoil made for some great songs.

I'm not sure a new biography about Gord would make the New York Times best seller list here in the States but in Canada, given his sort of recent rebirth, maybe, just maybe folks would be interested. Don't know.

I had no idea he was such a Canadian icon during the 60s, at least that's how Collins paints it. There are a few copies listed out there costing around $45. I also found a few copies of the other bio by Gabiou but it's way to expensive, nearly $100.

So happy to see all the folks here who share my terror at having my feet touched. My daughter thinks I'm crazy, and thinks it's hysterical to pretend she's going to tickle my foot. NOT FUNNY!! So nice to know I'm not alone in this.

The Rumblers rythm guitar player (known for his whammy-bar intro to BOSS) had the ugliest feet on earth.

When we'd be at the beach and a fine girl would stroll by, we'd make Mike bury his feet in the sand.

And no way I'd ever touch 'em.

This is all found in Gord's Story, of course.

Included with the "Songbook" collection is a very nice booklet with lots of biographical info in it. It was worth the money for that alone. It does not, however, contain the "toilet" story. :D

Consider yourself lucky culverd. A few months back I sought recommendations in this forum from people who post on Corfid for my next GL purchase. I chose to go with the majority view and just a few hours ago got around to it and paid for "Songbook" to be imported to me here in Sydney. It has to come from the US and the shop assistant earnestly advised me to expect a call in around 3 months !!!...
And through a stroke of luck I have come across a photo of the very same carrier pigeon - (possibly the slowest in history) in a trans-Pacific Ocean crossing on the job on my behalf......
