Recalling Gordon Lightfoot, Regarding The Edmund Fitzgerald

Recently the superb singer and songwriter, Gordon Lightfoot, who astounded with such meaningful hit songs as “If You Could Read My Mind,” and “Sundown” (oh to be going to Queens with a ’70 Olds and WABC), died at the age of 84.

I was fortunate to see Gordon Lightfoot perform in Tarrytown, New York at the theater/music hall.

Today recollections and a link below to Gordon’s appearance on “Weekend Saturday Edition” hosted by Scott Simon.

The air date was Saturday November 13, 2021.
