Saw Tom at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto many times Great Canadian R I P my friend

So glad to have grown up in this era! The music was pure genius!

ever looked for job in a crap economy? u will go anywhere there is work. lighten up francis

love him!!

Stompin Tom had a massive impact on my life growing up. Get to it and at it! I didn't know he returned his Junos. That is some good principled action.

Was introduced to Gord's music with Don Quixote. If you've never listened to that album, do yourself a favor. Every song is just beautiful. The way the guitars emulate the vocals and the stories is just outstanding. Just close your eyes and really let the songs invade your mind. He really had a talent. Thanks Gordon!

Gordon certainly did the best with what he had. Dedicated and superb.

Wonderful. I've never seen that performance of "I Have a Son, I Have a Daughter"

I always liked Ian&Sylvia.When Sylvia’s song “Nobody” came out I had to pick a side,I picked her. 🤗The song “Some kinda Fool” had solidified my fan hood for these people.🥰

why has heinz not been all over the ketchup song?

LOVE THIS!!!!!

One of the highlights of my life was when I finished an interview with Gord, and choking back tears, I said "I just want you to know that you make me proud to be Canadian." There was a pause (he didn't take compliments well) and then just said, 'well, thank you.' Immeasurable talent and an irreplaceable artist.

Don Messer had a very nice TV show on the CBC.

The song at 1:57 somewhat resembles House of the Rising Sun

Guess I met her late beautiful soul❤❤🙏

rad! thanks for posting

I first became a fan when I bought the 45 of "Sundown" when I was 10, although I knew "If You Could Read My Mind." "Sundown" had such an edge to it and although I didn't know about sex, I inherently knew that was a very sexy song.

I often wonder if some of the best singers just don't end up insanely popular so that those of us that appreciate their talent get the full measure of their gifts. It's not diluted by fad or populism and we are the grateful recipients of such beauty.

RIP Ian, best cowboy and singing EVER. Loved Your singing and cowboy songs.

Please anybody can tell me the name of the song at 1:57? Thanks

Wonder how his hair was both tight curly and sometimes totally straight ? Did he get permed like a lot of guys did in the 70s ? Because he ended up with straight hair in the end.

Got me through a lot long nights and drives thanks

"Summer Wages"!

What a wonderful video. Kudos CBC

Does anybody know where I can watch the whole episode?

Nice to see a rare interview from about the mid-point of his career. He felt lucky to still be performing at age 52. Little did he know he'd be playing over 30 years later. An abdominal aneurysm in 2002 almost killed him and severely hampered his singing voice. But he soldiered on for another 20 years and "did the best he could with what he'd got." Rest in peace, Gord. There will never be another singer songwriter like you.

In 1994, I was blessed to see Gordon Lightfoot live in concert. His amazing music has been with me throughout all the ups and downs of my life.

Pussywillows Cattails is probably my favourite song by anyone. It is a song that is at peace with the world, remembering the softness and quiet joys

I met Gordon Lightfoot in person one memorable night in Waikiki in the early 1970s. I was the manager of a small apartment complex in Waikiki called The Shady Lane Apartments and I often would sti on my front porch "stoop" of an evening. The Shady Lane had a courtyard filledd with tropical plants, a pond and waterfall, and the apartments were arranged around this courtyard. I had become the resident manager in 1972. Gordon had just done a concert at the Blaisdell Center that evening and was walking by himself exploring Waikiki when he wandered into the Shady Lane and I invited him to sit on the concrete stoop next to me. I rolled a joint of Hawaii's famous "buds" and over the net hour I got to know Lightfoot on a person level. He was a heavy drinke3r at the timne. Glad he finally gave up alcohol. He seemed to be a bit sad that evening as we talked. As a Nam combat vet I think he and I both felt a bit of "sadness"....

He had such a beautiful vibrato

Seeing him encourage the crowd to clap along is a bit confusing to me, because I saw him in Portland, Or and during "Sundown" he told the crowd to desist when we started to clap along

You are so right. We won,t see this kind of talent again. One of a kind. And he shared his knowledge with others

May 16, 2023, having just watched this video: "I'm 52 years old and I'm still working...." Little did Gordon, or we fans, know that thirty years later, he would still be working....up until the end. You were such a huge part of my life, Gordon. I will miss you forever.

Forever missed 🎶💞🎶

Great little video. I've followed Gord when I was in Duluth in '76 and went out and got all his UA albums and all the rest. A real good interview with him I hadn't seen heard before. No one else like him. And it seemed he always did do his best.

Love A Minor Ballad. Reminds me of the Riverboat.

RIP You will be missed.

RIP

RIP Gord

I love this folk hero he's a great guy

Singing about the people. Love this folk hero.
