Really enjoyed listening to those vids! Very nice voice! Going to have another listen.

Really nice music especially Sundown.

Really nice music especially Sundown.

Glad you enjoyed it. Here a couple more of favs from him:

 

[Craig in Indy]

I guess us Canucks only know and really appreciate the music he has done.

Not true, not true. I've been a huge fan for 40 years, and I'm from Illinois.

Not true, not true. I've been a huge fan for 40 years, and I'm from Illinois.

Really, a ridiculous statement on my part. Good to see a long devoted fan.

 

[Groovy Man]

Hey...I'm big on Gordon Lightfoot...

I love his 60's and 70's stuff....

haven't checked out anything beyond that.

Groovy. Great to hear from a former outlaw. I figured you were a folkie.

I know a lot of Americans are familiar with Gordo. I'm not so sure about the rest of the world though. Sundown is my favourite. If You Could Read My Mind, Beautiful are a couple more I really love.

I saw him in Hamilton in 2008. His voice has definately gone downhill. Wish I could have seen him back in the day.

 

[Phil B.]

Been listening to him since I was knee high. Just picked up some nice records. Covers are a bit rough, but the records look brand new.

He is more popular in the US than I thought. I think his album Sundown really brought him into the light being number 1 on the charts and the two top 10 singles.
