Gordon Lightfoot was a gifted artist in time of gifted folk rock musicians like James Taylor, Carole King, and Harry Chapin. I enjoyed his music and continue to listen to his work. Rest peacefully sir.
WOW, you and Alana are so on the same page this week! lol Great tribute to a great artist. RIP! Thanks for saving me dance, Robin. ;) Have a boogietastic week, my friend. xo
I don't believe it. I didn't steal your post, honest. I did like the fact that you posted live performance videos. I had looked for a live video of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald that was made after 2010, when Lightfoot tweaked some of the lyrics to match some recently found info about the ship's last hours, and I ran across the performance you ended up posting. Anyway, great minds! Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

So you should know that I am not a “shopper”. I live in shopping mall heaven — I’m ten minutes from the Broadway Mall, 15 from Roosevelt Field and 25 from Whitman Shoppes — but I seldom go to the mall. I prefer to shop on line. And when I do venture into a store, I usually know what I want and buy it as quickly as possible. I’m not one to browse through stores just to see what’s for sale. There’s a local chain, Baked By Melissa , that specializes in mini cupcakes. They’re primarily in Manhattan. A few years ago Becca introduced me to their product - delicate little cakes, exquisitely decorated, very tasty. I walk past their shop on 7th Avenue whenever we go to the theater. Well, last week I remembered that they used to have a second shop on 7th, right next to the original shop, but selling gluten-free versions of all their cupcakes. The gluten-free shop closed, but the company continues to make a gluten-free version of their product. So I thought that gluten-free cupcakes wou
found a new blog today. Love it. http://secret-squirrel.webs.com/index.htm I've posted there under various names over the last 10 years or so. it went from a sweet little board that was Pete Werner's hobby to ....well, a real nightmare. that a board devoted to all things Disney can be such a nasty, racist, childish (not childlike) place.... loving the inside scoop, though. Did I ever tell you how "songbird" was banned from the DIS? I was a poster in good standing for 3-4 years. Even booked my trips through Dreams Unlimited, back when Pete was careful to distinguish between the disboards as a hobby and Dreams as his business. Pete and Webmaster Alex were struggling with server issues, the disboards would go down more often than they'd stay up. then Pete announced cosmetic changes to wdwinfo.com, which feeds into the disbaords forum. Like all other members of the forum, I was frustrated. so I was a bit sarcastic. I posted something to the effect of "would yo
Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel … The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo. Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.

ReplyDeleteYes, great minds indeed!
DeleteI think everyone likes the same songs of his. I think I had these in my tribute, too (and no, I don't think you copied off of me).
ReplyDeleteYou had a few different songs, as I recall.
DeleteMy favorite is Did She Mention My Name?

ReplyDeleteYou have to be a bit skeptical on the internet, know your source. I also love Barry Gibb, I’ll cry when …
