I am since 1969 a Lightfoot fan.......I thought I had most of his music.....but on you tube so many of his songs I have never heard....SO I HOPE THAT HIS FAMILY MAKE SEVERAL ALBUMS WE CAN BUY TO GET SOME OF THESE SONGS!!!!! including the songs on this list! Roll On Sands of Time Movin' My Love for you Divorce Country Style Prettiest Time of Her Life Don't be Sorry An Old Friend Betty Mae's a Good Time Gal River Gal Fox Fire Too Much to Lose........ I Hope that the Family will understand how the Fans NEED that music.........I have listened to him all my adult life...I want more.

This is vintage Lightfoot. I'm surprised it didn't make it to a major album.

With Gords Vintage Poetry All I Need Is Vintage Wine , And An Old Guitar

an old one for thee,a new one for me,a great one for all.with Lightfoot we are blessed

Wow I have never heard this before. Thank you!!

Why oh why, was this magnificent song, not included on an album ?? Please honour Gordon Lightfoot now , by releasing this song, for all of his fans, to enjoy.

This is the stuff that goosebumps are made of ♥️

this IS vintage Lightfoot!

Played on Memorial day iWillamette National Cemetery

a search of "Gordon Lightfoot 05/08/1965" will get you to the whole performance

A worthy trubute to Canadian military heroes.

And to the numerous Canadians that went to the US and enlisted in our forces and fought tyranny in Vietnam.

Epic Lightfoot with good cause❤

It's not on any of his albums...! This is awesome I thought I had all his songs..where can I get it, what album?

Did this classic perhaps inspire "Working Class Hero" by John Lennon? I'd be very cool with that, for Gordy and John are among my absolute favourite song writers!!

@rts4761 Yes it is...that youthful voice of his is just beautiful..

@txdaiseyblue Only bootlegs to my knowledge. The album is called 'Get Together'

@Bullettube Your welcome! Gotta dust off the oldies, ya know

@guitarman2214 I heard he's recorded over 500 songs..and I've only got maybe 250 of them on his albums. I even bought the DVD of Harry tracy even though he didn't write it.I'm going to have to search for this album..where did you get this song? Do you have the album..I would pay for a copy of it! LOL

@berrygirl1964 Your welcome, as always ;-) I will have to get "my" next gord song up soon..I'll do that asap...promise! Hope you are well too!! Haven't heard from ya in awhile!

I hear echos of early Dylan here...including a more nasal tone, reminiscent of Dylan's whine.

Echoes of Dylan here for sure. But still a great song.

Dylan was his hero (no pun intended). Lightfoot hadn't hit his stride yet when he recorded this song. It wouldn't be surprising if he was trying to emulate Dylan. This is one of the strongest of 31+ songs that were recorded during this period and released by Warner on two vinyl demonstration discs (one double sided and one single sided). The songs were not officially released and don't appear on any of his albums.

What album is this from?

'Get Together' - I believe it's part of a 2 album bootleg.

GORDON LIGHTFOOT Cleveland 1965 [no label, 1CD] Live at La Cave, Cleveland, Ohio; May 8, 1965. Very good soundboard? Some hiss. I have it on this Bootleg, it also has "Song of the Groundhog" and " The Auctioneer" worth tracking down for a fan, too bad the intro is skipped for Echoes of Heroes, very touching.
