A local movie house showed "If You Could Read My Mind - The Gordon Lightfoot Story" and Maggie and I went to see it. It's a great movie and if you get a chance, you should check it out.
Gord appears at the Mariposa Folk Festival many years, unannounced. He did last summer and the crowd loved him.
I first saw Gord as 1/2 of the duo The Two Tones at the 1962 Mariposa Folk Festival. He was playing a tenor guitar and his partner, Terry Whelan played a baritone ukulele. He has since tripled the number of strings on his guitar.
