Hi patybear, I did know about Lightfoot's Mom, and her name was definetely Jessica...
This had been discussed in some other post. Maybe he was referring to her in memory on Flyin
Blind?
"Even Flyin' Blind, which on the surface is a straightforward tale of adventure, is awash in metaphor, intended or otherwise, as he calls on Jessi-Jo to guide him through the cold world he now finds himself in as he is flying blind, trying to regain a foothold amid the clouds of loneliness."
But the thing is that, in the Cd booklet, he gives Special Thanks to Jessi-Jo...
Maybe one day it will be known???
