Re: The Harmonize For Speech Fund - A Conversation With Gordon Lightfoot
Great to see such passion amongst the old boys as they discuss the glory of group harmony. Ironic that Gord's show basically is void of harmonies. The harmonies are as integral to those studio recordings as the lead guitar parts are. IMO anyhow. The brief moments when the boys chime in on Sundown Sweet Guinevere and Triangle are always savoured. The possibilities.
Well, I sent the clip to a producer colleague who had worked on a 'child stuttering' themed documentary that I knew Gord had participated in.
I don't think the doc is online but it was very well received, award winning and very heartbreaking and moving.
Anyhow - He just contacted me to tell me the HE was the actual interviewer here! He hadnt seen this particular edited montage. It was done a few years ago. Small world....
