Sundown

Just got back from a Gordon Lightfoot concert and even at 72 he is pretty darn good.

Actually never figured I would get to see him again.

Most of the musicians his age are gone. I guess I'm getting old.

Always been a Gordon Lightfoot fan. The song "Sundown" in particular brings back great memories of a monthlong road trip my family took. Seems like that song was on the radio every time we tuned to a new station.....

Thanks for a momentary flashback to a better time.

Rob you lucky son of a gun! I'd love to go see him in concert. I can remember listening to him on my dad's old 8-tracks! Edmund Fitzgerald, Sundown, and If You Could Read My Mind......my favorites. Although, I really haven't heard anything of his I didn't like.

One night my wife and I spent at least two hours listening to songs on Itunes.
So many songs that bring back memories. Just listening to the songs from
the 60s and 70s takes me back.

The other day I was watching "Storage Wars" and one of the buyers
took a guitar to get an appraisal.
The appraisal was done by Aerosmith guitarist Brad Whitford, I could not
believe it was him.
