I have never been to a Gordon Lightfoot concert, but when I graduated from university (20+ years ago), he was a guest at the ceremony and handed me my degree. Perhaps he was granted an honourary degree that day?
OK...any recommendations on what album/CD to listen to next?

If you are going to "dive" into Gord, set the Songbook 4 disc set. It is pricey but you can hear songs from every decade and some that haven't been released before. Then when you find your temporary favorites (favs are always changing!) you can get the album and listen to all the songs there.
Good luck and keep us posted.
