The band were superb which made up for GL's voice.
How much longer can he keep singing ?

I do not think he'll ever give it up
I can remember being rather disappointed with his changed and I felt inferior voice as long ago as 1993 when I first heard the Waiting For You
CD (a surprise gift from close friend who had found it in Montreal after attending a friends wedding in Toronto.) As usual with any new Lightfoot album it grew on me and nowadays three of my favourites to listen to including the current Live renditioning are from that album (Restless, Wild Strawberries, I'd Rather Press On.)
