Thread Name: Thoughts on Gordon Lightfoot
Subject: RE: BS: Thoughts on Gordon Lightfoot
I still love Gord's older stuff, but in the eighties he started getting away from stories and more into the smarmy, gooshey romantic ballads. I lost track of him after that. Still love "Canadian Railroad Trilogy", "Don Quixote", "Approaching Lavender"... I could go on and on. I saw him on cable a few months ago, and agree with Dunkle that his range has diminished some, but it was still fun to see him again.
