Being a touter of the music of Gordon Lightfoot as a busker here in Vancouver I realized the importance of bringing up that new lyric the moment it was announced, and the reaction from audiences proved most interesting with nods of approval, thumbs up, etc.
"The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" is a necessary song as part of any Gordon Lightfoot show.
Sometimes folks just like to chat and tell stories about how Gord's music has affected them on a personal level.
It sure makes the day interesting not to mention the "pumping up" it gives me to keep it going.

Cheers, Ron J.
