Which university did you graduate from and what was your major? (just curious) http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif

Campania,

I've got to second Brink. If you're serious, splurge and buy Songbook. I absolutely promise you will not regret it for a moment. I have been a devout fan for 30 years, and it had wonderful surprises for me. In addition to the previously unrecorded songs (and some are so fabulous it boggles the mind that they never made it onto an album) it has a great book that is priceless.
Enjoy!

LOL. I went to Trent University in Peterborough, Ontario. No one took a pic of the moment. Remember, at that time, it wasn't a big deal to me. Actually I didn't even recall that it happened until a friend recently reminded me when I was telling her about my new-found interest in Lightfoot music. Too bad...youth is wasted on the young.
Thank you for your input re: what to listen to next. I will investigate Songbook!

It's amazing that you found that picture! I wonder if he wishes that he was just about anywhere else on the planet at that moment...

PS Campania, I was born in Peterboro and almost went to Trent U. Got a $150 scholarship to Brock and thought it was my duty to take it...
