Re: Stemming Gold
I wanted to comment on the one picture above...
The picture on the left...
On the left are my two boys, Joey & Rusty...then Gord.... then my boys friend Jake.
Joey and Jake are 14. Joey, of course grew up with GL... Jake has taken a strong liking to his music this past year and a half and wanted every GL cd there was for Christmas. Jake's mother obliged... (Now come on... what would you rather listen to... Rap or GL?...) So Jakes mother was estatic that he likes GL.
Believe it or not... Joey and Jake KNOW THE NAME OF EVERY GL SONG AND FROM WHAT ALBUM IT COMES FROM.... When questioned about a particular song on what album... they can have the answer in less than two seconds.
Gordon Lightfoot's music is timeless and can be appreciated by all. They just have to be exposed to it.... and with this pitiful, corrupt music/radio industry and their hate filled garbage on the radio, exposure to good music is not going to happen anytime soon.
