Orillia - the town and region he grew up in permeate his songs (like "Brave Mountaineers", for example.) Go to the CBC archives at http://archives.cbc.ca/IDD-1-74-743/...don_lightfoot/

The first video in the archives, from 1967, shows Gord talking about growing up in Orillia. It runs a little over 8 minutes, and features brief interviews with Gord's parents
