Your definitive list now requires some updating James
We now know that he performed both
Nous Vivons Ensemble
and
Talking in Your Sleep
most memorably on the fantastic BBC 1971/1972/2011 television special concert
plus recently we can cross off
Home from The Forest
and
I'd Rather Press On
I have just been reading some notes I made on the fabulous 1975 Red Rocks (ColoUrado) concert and saw that he performed
Mother of a Miner's Child

I make that only 34 still to get an airing (33 if Go Go Round gets a round of applause nextweek) so all thise lucky enough to speak to Gord next week should make a point of telling him of this vital fact and stress that he could soon add some of them to his rotation
(I recall the Lightfoot Tribute Band at The Cafe Lena in 2002 making a fine medley out of
Farewell to Annabel segueing into the recenrly revived Race Around The Ruins)
