And melodies that once intrigued me now pale in comparison to Gordons simplistic yet brilliant arrangements.
No doubt one of the factors for me is that a lot of the music of my generation has little substance to offer, and so now after discovering Lightfoot, the bar has been raised, so to speak.
I wonder, has anyone else experienced this phenomena??

Not so with Johnny Cash. They're equally good.
What's good though is whenever I get that "burnout" on some of his songs (some of you on here never get burned out on music you've listened to for too long, and you're veeery very lucky), I listen to some of the lesser artists. After I get used to them, I start listening to Gord again, and it hits me how much better he is compared to those others.
Snoop Dogg, Young Jeezy, Scooter, and Floorian (there's actually a band with that name
) don't have a chance at comparing.
