Dear Gord, Every time you were in Thunder Bay I was somewhere else. Oh how I wanted to meet you. I hav every song book and tape or at least most of them. How do you thank someone who has been a lifetime of inspiration as you and your music have been to me. You are clearly unequaled Gord and it gives me such pleasure to add to this list of friends and admirers in wishing you the best birthday ever and many more. I learned to play the guitar when I was 14 and finger style so I could play your style. I bought a big old D-18 and spend many hours pickin out those highway songs and singin them as well. I became an entertainer and started out singing Lightfoot songs in coffee houses halls and bars and right up to this day your songs are the most popular. Every song has such meaning especially songs like "son for a winters night" and spanish moss to mention a couple. I still live with the hope to see you in person someday and once again I wish you the smoothest road and the bluest skies ever. sincerely a fan for life, Cliff Redden , RR#3 Thunder Bay Ontario Canada P7c 4v2
