From "Lightfoot" biography by Alfrieda Gabiou 1979:
"Lightfoot's career and success are still far from over, but when someone in the future looks back to find out what was so special about him, they will likely consider what he once told MELODY MAKER: "I've done totally my own trip and stayed away from the hype. I've done what I believed in throughout the years."

and so it goes......it's always been about the song....
Char

Also in the book:
How did you begin writing songs?
Lightfoot: - "It started with a kiss."
