Closetecanadian,
I agree that John Stewart and Gordon Lightfoot to an exent are both underappreciated. I think maybe it's becuse they both came out of the folkie tradition which was abandoned long ago. But these two musicians have moved out of the folk movement and into their own kind of music, which deals with nature and places they know and love. Not to mention women!
