Canada's greatest folk singer. My parents wore the shit out of their "Gord's Gold" cassette on family car rides and it heavily influenced my musical taste. He'll get no shitbag designation from me. RIP teacher. Some crazy ass backstory behind Sundown, Cathy Smith, John Belushi if you care to google it. In the 70's, my mom was a bit of a loon, so it was not uncommon for us 4 kids to be left at an Aunts house for a few days at a time. (long story) At the time, my Uncle was a Gordon Lightfoot fanatic and played the Sundown album on a loop constantly, to the point where I began to hate every nuance of Lightfoots Canadian accent. Irrational, burning hate. It made me even hate Richard Thompson, who was from England, but sounded to me like he was from Canada. This lasted for decades. Only in the last few decades have I been able to be objective and appreciate him as a song writer and performer. lolgfy and they gave you a gun. huh. |
