Aengus adds this in the liner notes of BEAUTIFUL -
"Lightfoot...is there a more evocative Canadian name? Here's to the man who sought the quiet melody of the true north, and sang our lives with such poetry and passion, such tenderness and grit, such sorrow and pride. Here's to the man who stirred the imagination of weary waitresses, rambling workers, young lovers, and dusty academics alike. And here's to the man whose voice on a record player filled at least one kid with dreams that he too might one day travel the troubadour's road. Thanks for the songs Gord!"
