Mentioning Lightfoot reminds me that my wife bought tickets for one of his outdoor concerts here in October. I have a sense that it may be his last, or one of his very last tours. I heard recently that, owing to the condition of his voice, he had decided to do no more studio recording.

I don't know what the expectations were for three of the four whose comments I cited. The one lady who said she had been a lifelong fan was probably the most disappointed. She may well be one who expected to hear old numbers replicated as they were once recorded. I wouldn't find that very interesting myself; I can always play the record.
