    I seem to be the first comment here since his passing. He was wonderful in so many ways, but perhaps most impressive was the fact that he kept on keeping on. Thank you Gordon.

    The ongoing joy that keeps coming our way from Gordon Lightfoot and his seemingly endless flow of classic compositions is truly remarkable. Hearing this new piece of work sort of gives me the feeling like a magic carpet arrived, picked me up and transported me back to my favourite seat in Steele's Tavern, or the Riverboat. It's like a foregone era has returned. Only Gord can make it happen.
