I definitely agree that Gord's music and lyrics are much more sophisticated, deeper, etc. - should we just sum it up as better? - than alot of what is being played on country stations, still they seem like the relative best fit to me. I often find myself explaining to people who claim to "know" Gordon Lightfoot that it is the songs they've never heard of that I really love rather than the hits that they're familiar with. It just seems a shame that more people will probably never get to hear them.
