The Toronto music/cultural scene today owes a lot to Bernie and his vision, his determination and his inate ability to know a major talent is knocking on his front door.
He's a sweet man who once told me that Lightfoot was a "sweetheart-a real sweetheart of a man"..here's to both of them all these many years later still doing their thing in a much different city than Torono was back in '67..
I certainly hope Bernie is in attendance on the 26th for the anniversary of another Toronto icon-CHUM radio. I'm getting quite hyped about it - the music I listened to on CHUM was my life as a kid..and as it was back then Lightfoot still leads the pack..
