Stevie Nicks seemed to have a similar problem on the first verse of "Rhiannon"(sp?), but from the second verse on she found her pipes and made up for it. I didn't cry but it made me happy when she showed us she could still do it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696282824996152237.post-58222302253982502632011-05-31T11:43:06.092-04:002011-05-31T11:43:06.092-04:00I love that you cried.

I saw him in Texas in the 80's and really enjoyed it. However during the sixties and seventies I listened to him all the time. Hard to believe that he is 72 and still performing. I believe he was in bad health for a while.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05052316359986870416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696282824996152237.post-76946360615124440752011-05-27T21:02:58.645-04:002011-05-27T21:02:58.645-04:00You know how a person remember all the words and t...You know how a person remember all the words and tunes of songs he learned in adolescence? Well, I remember the words and tunes of Gordon Lightfoot's songs perfectly still, even though his peak popularity here in Australia would have been in the late 1960s.<br /><br />How strange and wonderful that a Canadian could touch the hearts and minds of young people 10,000 ks away. And that it would stick.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2696282824996152237.post-66633012790391302682011-05-27T16:45:22.173-04:002011-05-27T16:45:22.173-04:00That must have been wonderful to see.
