There will never be another voice like Gordon Lightfoot's. What a beautiful singer.

Canadian Musical Treasure! RIP 🕊

A pretty good performance... after all, the subject matter hit pretty close to home.

Not a bad job Gordo. Love this Canadian songwriter/singer so. Rest in love Gordon. I will miss you so until my passing. Hope to see you on the other side.

One of my most favorite and beloved artists ever!! Miss you Gordy...

My God, he was an awesome actor too...

Indeed my friend❤😊

1988 stay loose was only sung twice live a lesson in love 1988 sung 3 times

Gordon Lightfoot amazing poetry

Gordon Lightfoot as Joe Daniels. Even though this was during his “East Of Midnight” phase, Lightfoot could relate to this during his “Shadows” period in where he was trying to get help. He himself went through a heavy drinking period between 1976 and 1982. During that period he was already acting as Marshal Morrie Nathan in the movie Harry Tracy Desperado. This episode was filmed about 5 or 10 years too late when he was already sober.

True, by 1982 he was a wreck..overweight, drinking and smoking heavily..thankfully he kicked the drinking on labor day of that year. He quit smoking about two years ago so his body is now rid of the alcohol and cigarette smoke.

I love seeing these clips, but I have zero recollection of seeing him drunk or overweight. This was made, evidently, during the time I saw Gordon in concert the most! Its nice to see him smile. I ❤ him…warts and all. Especially that Canadian clear accent!! Thanks for putting this video together. Gordon is my Number one musician ❤ since 1970 thru eternity

@@danbasta3677 I did not hear about that so that is so lovely.

That dude is exceptional!

Gordon Lightfoot looks like a completely different person ever few years. Its kind of scary. Somehow, he always manages to look like Don Henley and Bryan Cranston at the same time. How can all this be true? Could they all be the same guy? lol

Gordon did a good job in this episode. Thanks for sharing.

Whisky and wine helps me pa-ss the time

I had forgotten about this appearance. Gordon was also in a movie with Bruce Dern called Harry Tracy and the Wild Bunch.

OMG! Albert Ingalls is Gord's son. Who would have known? LOL!

Indeed! I noticed that to. Actor Mathew Laderex, not sure about the last name spelling, however he did indeed potray Albert Ingalls in the tv series Little House On The Prairie.

A young Brian Cranston !

He was a better singer than actor, but he was good at that too.

The young actor there is actor Matthew Laderex, correct me on the last spelling of his name, who is best known as Albert Ingalls in the tv series, Little House On The Prairie.

Awful close to reality. Life repeating itself. First time seeing him as actor. Met him in 1976 in his home after a concert and he looked well. Here he looked so thin.

If they ever do a remake, get Andrew Lincoln to play James Brolins' character.

Money and success changes the landscape of everything. Lightfoot,Joni Mitchell etc. They get a bail out for their mistakes. I don't feel sorry for Lightfoot or Joni Mitchell. Or any of the rich elite bullshit baby boomers. Money wins everytime is the only message I hear.
