You know,getting back on topic here by the way,I recall someone on here saying they'd no longer go to Gordon's concerts because of his voice.
Which I think is a bit hypocritcial. A huge fan for years but just because its "not exactly the same" anymore,they decide to just live in the past.
Now granted,those with a history with Gord may long for "the voice" but the truest fans stick around.
I wish I had listned sooner to those few Lightfoot LP's I had in the 90s. I would have more than likely wanted to hear more and seen him in concert sooner. Even when I had "GG" in the 80s. I could have seen and heard him sing in his original way.
Being young though,I listened to the "popular" acts of the time and thought,
"Heck,if they can't get more than 10 hits,the rest of their stuff must be lame!" Which is what I thought in Gordon's case.
Glad I grew up and realized better,but I know he does what he loves and he does what he can and I think he does it,still,very well.
