RIP Mr. Lightfoot. Music won't be the same. 1938 to 2023, what a long time. He was going up until his departure. Truely amazing.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
My sister and I were there in the audience. Amazing upload. Thank you. Somewhere I have this on VHS too. Thanks! #RIP Mr. Lighfoot
Ich besaß nur eine einzige LP "Sundown" vor 50 Jahren in Deutschland.
Ich hätte ihn gerne persönlich kennengelernt. Ich lebte Mitte der 60iger Jahre eine Zeit lang in Toronto und kannte auch Orillia, wo mein 1. Mann arbeitete.
Heute liebe ich Gordon Lightfoot. Er hat mich in einer ganz miesen Lebensphase mit seiner Musik gerettet.
Ruhe sanft, lieber Gordon!
He never gave up, even when his voice was gone from damage due to surgery and other factors. Such a remarkable song writier.
He did what he loved right up until the end, what a way to go out...
This was before the surgery, just to know!
Looks like he was only 61 here. Must've been the some health issues or hard living....he became so thin and his vibrato was gone. Still the very best ❤
You know just like Terry Fox, Gord Downie and Neil Peart, Gord worked it hard until the very end. Hard working Canadians.
@@simplysusanc he was thin because he started working out and dieting. The change in his voice was probably because of years of smoking.
The first time I saw Gordon Lightfoot was in the late 70’s when a wonderful friend whom I had a huge crush on arranged for a group of us to go to Massey Hall. I knew of Gordon Lightfoot’s music since the early 70s when my Grade 7 teacher introduced us to it. I still sing Pussywillows, Cattails when I garden. The late 70s crush was not reciprocated but I have maintained my relationship with Mr. Lightfoot. An amazing songwriter, arranger and performer with one of the best bands ever. Thank you for the amazing music. Rest in peace❤️
Circle of steel was always one of his most powerful songs and a favorite. He painted pictures in your mind of great richness and i loved him😢
This live performance is my favourite and I watched it when broadcast in 1999 . This is how Gordon sound for the next 23 years . He always a professional and Canadian National Treasure ! We all will miss you Gordon . It’s hard to think your gone .
I saw Gordon in concert many times . The last concert was at The renovation and reopening of Massey Hall 2022 . R.I.P Mr Lightfoot 🤗❤️🇨🇦🎸
I can't get enough of Gordo. I never will get enough. What a performer!
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald is as great as any popular song ever released in the era of recorded music. It does not get any better.
I love that song!
Oh yes! All I have been doing since I heard the 💔 news is looking at interviews and any music 🎶 performances...I actually stopped crying, just to watch this...
A true Canadian icon 🍁 and yes, hopefully he will be recognized into some hall of fame...
And yup...that damn song 🎶 😢 If you could Read my Mind...I tried to sing along...nope 😭
Damn good song 🎶 🎶 🎶
Me too / moi aussi...❤
Me too!
I have an old friend, u0 years old . Plays guitar for a community on Friday night. I encouraged him to learn a few well Known Gordon 's songs , from our roots in the 60,'s and early 70's. . He played them this past Friday, asHomage and Farewell to our Brilliant Singer , Gordon Lightfoot. He spoke about what the songs he played, meant to Gordon, and what he was going thought, as he wrote each song. He talked about his home town, and living in Toronto. I feel he took his songs and Bircon would have approved. May He Rest in Peace, knowing his Music, made our lives much better, because of his own ,ife History. 🕯🇨🇦☄🌠💔
Gord was a master songwriter and singer. I loved him for so long. RIP Thank you for your great work.🎼🎶🎵👍🌹
❤❤❤❤❤
We will not see his like again. Thanks for this great video.
He did it all in his fashion, “saying prayers and touching wood”. RIP, Gordon.🙏
I loved his song, " A Painter Passing Through" . For I am a painting conservator , passing through this life Historically. I felt as if these lyrics were written for people like us, the ones that keep the Old Masters Alive, and the Painters, ths I work with in my everyday life. For they make my work, look just as the artist intent. I Thank G-d, for Gordon Lightfoot, as he has been a Brilliant songwriter, since the early 60's . He only listened to Bob Dylan, back in the early days. This is what Gordon became today. Our Troubadour from Canada 🇨🇦⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🕯☄🌠🎖⚘💔❤🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
The album 'A Painter Passing Through' had some really great songs on it: the title track, Drifters, On Yonge Street, My Little Love. Gordon said the songs came to him more slowly, later in his career, but they were still wonderful to listen to.

Its a Brilliant, Beautifully Mastered Album; I do so agree with you! Canada, has many Great Musicians; in their own genre. None could compare to Gordon. 🧡⭐️🧡🎼🌅
Couldn't agree more this song was one of his very best .I could relate to this so much in my own life .I've said this before in comments . I believe if you listen to his music ,you can really appreciate your own experiences in life .just really listen to the words in any song and somehow it just reaches your soul
Watching & listening from The USA.
Rest in peace
Missing my beloved Gordon Lightfoot! ... My forever Soul Crush! 💔
#MusicHistory ##PoetsAnddreamers 'A Painter Passing Through' is my favorite Lightfoot song. And yes I got meet him. 1999 was a big year.
There are times when I am so proud to be Canadian. Our immense contributions in world wars, Korea, peace keeping, the Cabot Trail, the CFL, Montreal Canadiens, the Canadian Rockies etc.. I am reminded how wonderful it is to be a Canadian in those times, people and places. When a Gordon Lightfoot song comes on the radio my world becomes still and in the moment. What a treasure!
What a laid back guy awesome voice awesome musician saw him live in 1984 but listened to him all my life 😢🙏 R.I.P Canadian Proud Son Gordon Lightfoot 🎸🎙️
So sad to hear 😢 we lost this true artist and amazing 👏 person. I thank God for the 🎶 music he has given us that will live on in our lives. A great poet, singer, song writer and musician who takes me back to a sweeter and easier time in my life ❤️.
Thank you Gordon 😊 I will always keep you near me through your music and the memories it brings of my earlier years and a simpler time in my life 💙 ❤️
I've heard the song a million times, yet I got goosebumps as soon as they played the first few notes of "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald".
Gord was a treasure.
I saw him many many times.
A mountain of an artist.
There will not be another Gordon! Met him 3 times, what a great guy. So was the rest of the band. Terry, Barry, Mike and Rick! RIP Gordon. Thanks for the memories.
What a treat to see Gordon Lightfoot in this performance at his best snd in such good spirits. I love all his music ❤
Thanks for posting this video!!! This moment we are living in now, is an extremely sad but yet scary moment in Canadian history. Seeing this video was like putting a rainbow 🌈 in an endless storm ⛈️!!! Goodbye Gordo. 😢
😢😢
Oh my, I so agree with you. He put Canada on the Map of Songwriters and Singers.! In June of 2022, you can see how sick he is... however, " the Show must go on " . Gordon, sang all the Old Ballads , and brought back many old memories for me. He will be forever remembered, and ever so missed ......Thank you, Gordon Lightfoot my Hero in my life . 🕯🇨🇦💔❤🎖🏆⚘🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
IT'S NEVER GOOD-BYE...IT'S ALWAYS "SEE YOU LATER"....😉😍
This was awesome! I remember seeing him perform live in Portland, Oregon in the 1980's. Love you Gord!
So glad you posted this, thank you, it’s been years since I’ve seen it! My brother and I were there at that show, it was wonderful ❤
Thank you very much for posting this - it is a wonderful show!
If Willie Nelson can get in the RRHOF, Gordon should be going in. Sad he is gone - he shared so much with the world.
I first stumbled on gordon lightfoot back in the late 90s when this video actually came out on much more music and 14 karat gold was the first ever lightfoot song that i heard! From thrn i became a lightfoot fan and while not a hardcore one anytime i hear any of his songs albeit when itd be for the first time it was like id known them for years. He along with other canadian treasures like bryan adams, tom cochrane, bnl, rush, and the barneaked ladies, bruce cockburn, etc is truly one of the greats we produced. Rest in peace mr lightfoot! And for a life fully enriched and most of all thanks so much for your brilliant musical gifts for future generations to enjoy!
Totally agree. I was introduced to Gordon lightfoot the same way via much more music and first ever song lightfoot song I heard was 14 karat gold. Lightfoot is one of those rare canadian artists where the stress melts away. He's our canadian equivalent of James Taylor! Great that he left such a great musical legacy. Rest in peace, sir!
Wow!! Jealous Lovers.. and so we cried. That song was the most personally moving song for me that Gordon ever did. I believe it was on the album Summertime Dream. Back in the 70s I learned every song on that album and performed them. That song was the favourite of my audiences, maybe because I always sang if from my soul. It is a song that I've forgotten about and was delighted when Gordon said he never did it for many years. To hear him sing it here brought many memories. Thank you Gordon in Heaven ❤️
Amen and amen well said and we will see him he is there and he is more alive now than he ever was here and this will be for eternity what a wonderful look forward that will be.
Always loved this man, I suppose to late to say, but if anyone reads this cause there are millions of comments on this, which is only right, the greatest folk song writer in the world ever, sorry Bob, but you will have to take a back seat on this guy, simply the best, God bless you Gordon, but. Then he done that from the.day you were born, / I'm gonna buy me two golden slippers, yes lord to walk me home / from, Rich man's spiritual/ you have not. Walked home, you have flown home on 2
Wings of silver, God bless you Gordon, you will be singing with Jesus, wow, gonna be a party up there, Gordon lightfoot, the best ever, from an Irish fan, God 🙌 🙌 🙌
I have spent the evening of Gordon's 85th birthday immersed in watching and listening to videos. This is by far the absolute best, and a perfect end to this day. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing it!
This was one of his best! If it was on a tape I would buy it. A legend in his own time. Fist time I fell in love with his songs/singing was 1971 in MN. He was the best of the ballad and folky musicians! Will miss him but will see him again in heaven! 🙂
I have seen Gordon and his band play several times in Portland, Oregon and once in Layton, Utah 2001. Gordon was gracious the times I met him as was Guitarist Terry Clement.
Sams rare...you bet, rare footage. Grand work! I zen bow to you...Oft wish I could rewind the clock, the years
You did a nd that holds forever! Love your tribute, buddy from 🇨🇦 ( Kim sends blessings also) 🎉
RIP Gordon. Gone but truly never forgotten. Thank you for posting. I've got much respect for him for being able to stand up there and sing into his 80s and for everything else he has done.
He was like someone from outta the old west..legend
The most wonderful concert I ever attended in the 80's in Saratoga was with Gordon Lightfoot! Thank you Gordon Lightfoot for a beautiful, romantic night!
Thank you for the video, Gordon has always been one of my favorite singer, songwriters and you obviously feel the same as I. I've played bass in many country western bands and it seems that in each one there was at least one of his songs that would make our song list, and there was always a great response from the audience including having them join in with us during the chorus. Personally I'm going to miss Gordon very much, so long to one of my favorite writers and performers.
Fun, interesting, and beautiful. He added magic into this world. 💞💫🌟
Thank you for posting this. It's wonderful. Gordon seems to be having such a good time! It's a pleasure to remember him this way.
Gordy's voice like his great music transcends all time and space .he may be gone from this earth but his voice holds 🙏 we miss you so much Gordon .it's still so hard to believe he's passed on like the wind it carries his voice and his music across the mountains ,country side and of course the great lakes .his music reflects that .once again RIP Gordon .I listen to your music everyday so to hear your voice and music 💘
God bless you Gordon 🙏 you was one of best ever in my thinking. Love your music 🎶 and I always will.
He was a great influence on Tony Rice who recorded many of Gord's songs. R.I.P. Gord and Tony. In my opinion, If You Could Read My Mind is one of the greatest songs ever written.
The best.
I definitely agree
All i can do now is renember back to the only concert i got to attend in my home of Lorain ,Ohio at the palace theater last monday morning was a very rough day here in the Phillipines im an American expat .it just foesnt feel real.gordon when you left ,you took a piece of my heart with you .a fan since age 10 when my sister boughtv2 -45,s if you could read my mind And Sundown played them all the time when i wasnt in dchool im 60 now i metyou after that concert i got to talk to you briefly .i told you im a great lakes sailor and was home he smiled .he asked me how i liked it ,inreplied back that i loved it and was blessed to have a great career and he smiled again.then hexsaid take care ❤😊
Good news you will see him again he is more alive now than he ever was here it's a good looking forward to time amen and amen.
Cried when I heard he was gone! !y husband and I wore out several of his recordings in all forms. Nut I hope he is playing for him in heaven!!!
thanks for posting this, i think i taped it on vhs when it first came out but misplaced it somewhere.
This is great. Thank you for posting such a wonderful performance. My 3rd time watching this. ❤❤ I have been listening to all Gordon since May 2nd. Cant bring myself to turn it to any other music. ❤️🩹
Gordon light foot has always saved me from some very bad times but I have dreaded this day since I was 7 years old I am in my sixties now. Point of interest…there is a top notch guitarist from Saskatchewan who also did a album of gords songs.
Gordon you will be certainly missed! Most thrse songs off his " Shadows". May you Rest in Peace ✝️
Gracias y saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina.

If there ever was a Gordon Lightfoot song that Frank Sinatra should definitely have done, this was it.
Pure Gord dust!
The song that sold a Million Chorus Pedals.
J P Cormier did an album of Gord songs.
I wonder what recording/performance of one of his songs was his favorite and who performed it?
❤❤
