Re: Gordon Lightfoot 2001Peterborough Full Concert
Thanks so much for this Imported.
Sure wish I could have attended that one. Gord seemed to be having a really great relaxing time there.
I like the mood he's in.
It's was interesting hearing the story he told about being approached by a gentleman requesting "Forgive Me Lord" and then relating how the song eventually got onto a recording. He doesn't play that one often.
From what I gather it is a favourite of his sister, Beverley, and his Mom liked it a lot as well.
It's a song I've always being able to find solace in listening to and also perform when I find the opportunity to work it into a gig. I always keep it fresh in my mind and it sounds great on the 12 string. There's just something of an exonerating feeling when that last line approaches and the very last chord is struck.
Probably has something to do with (past) unsettled ways.
