Re: Steve Goodman biography
Glad to see the Goodman fans (who I knew were in here somewhere) coming out. Being a real short musician named Steve I've always felt a close connection....
There's another Lightfoot mention in the book. Steve opened for him once and Lightfoot called him up to play with band for Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Aside form Steve - "How cool is this?" Indeed.
As if I didn't have enough gems from him that I play already I got a copy of him singing "I'm My Own Grandpa." Couldn't resist. Oh! Bring up another connection - like Gord, Steve covered the old Leroy Van Dyke "The Auctioneer." It (along with Grandpa) is a bonus track on the Somebody Else's Troubles (likely my favorite of his releases) CD.
