That's an interesting question. I took my then 8-9 ( now 27) year old son to see him, and he remembers it to this day. It was his first concert of any sort, so the bigger-than-life factor was in play. I was also fully prepared to take him outside if he became disruptive. Thankfully, he was as mesmerized as I was.

But Lightfoot then sounded more like the Lps/Cds my son had grown up listening to. My suggestion......take a chance.......worst case......"Another tale to tell".
