I have twice asked Gord about this and his reaction was more or less that he only knows the version and arrangement used by Ian and Sylvia and was therefore reluctant to copy it. I well recall a fantastic "stomping" version (i.e. far more oomph than the La Cave performance) that he sang live on a BBC television show back in either 1971 according to Wayne's site at:- http://www.lightfoot.ca/tvappear.htm
0r it might have been in 1972
