Interesting info Char. The Lightfoot Chapin relationship is interesting. At some concert I was at Gord mentioned he first met Harry when Harry stepped on Gord's glasses at a club.....I think in DC. Must be an inside joke or story there.

I remember at the second Olympic benefit that Gord organized, the one at the CNE, Harry forgot his guitar and had to play one of Gord's. Harry then noted that he was the only American on the bill but that he would play any time any where Gord asked him to.

It was at the former Exhibition Stadium and was raining, at least for part of the concert. My wife and I were just back from our honeymoon. Long time ago!
