Music Monday: Gordon Lightfoot – “Carefree Highway” … again

Posted By on May 19, 2025

Carefree Highway post 181210After starting a Music Monday post to include Gordon Lightfoot singing “Carefree Highway,” it occurred to me that I’ve likely posted the same song on MDB before? Of course I did … back in December 2018!aging

Uh-oh … this must be a sign?
 

  Gordon Lightfoot
  “Carefree Highway”

Gordon Lightfoot is to Canada what Woody Guthrie is to the States.
His voice is cracked, his face is lined, he’s long in the tooth…but still a national treasure, like Dylan or Robert Johnson, in other genres.
A legend, a genius, perhaps the last of the real Troubadours.
Long may you run, Gord, long may you run.

UNKNOWN

Gordon Lightfoot passed away in May of 2023, but his music lives on in our memoriesand some good ones I have listening with Charlie (Kamikaze)!
