Host Peter McCully chats with folksinger/songwriter John McLachlan, who has recorded four albums of Gordon Lightfoot music and performs a tribute show as well.
McLachlan says he was introduced to the music of Lightfoot at an early age.
害羞草研究所淚 was in Grade 4, and Ms. Dolan, the student teacher, brought a Gordon Lightfoot album to school and she played the 害羞草研究所楥anadian Railroad Trilogy害羞草研究所�. I just was captivated by its story. It told an awful lot about the workers, which I thought was a neat thing about it,害羞草研究所� said McLachlan.
The podcast includes nine Lightfoot songs as sung by McLachlan, including 害羞草研究所楽ummer Side of Life,害羞草研究所� a topical song about the Vietnam War and the young men in the summer of their youth.
害羞草研究所淚 found it a really evocative song to do, all these years later as an adult,害羞草研究所� said McLachlan. 害羞草研究所淚t has a very different feel to it, and it took me back to then. I was only 11 when the song came out. So not as aware of the Vietnam War, not with the depth that you have as a being a bit older. I think it really captures the feel of the time and what was happening then.害羞草研究所�
McLachlan had seen Lightfoot in concert 30 times over the years and tells the stories behind his favourite songs, including one that bumped Paul McCartney out of the number one spot on the music charts.
The acoustic arrangements are in the spirit of the originals but with some different arrangements and are performed with Marc Atkinson and Scott White.
害羞草研究所淢y band害羞草研究所檚 approach to all of this, when I害羞草研究所檝e looked at these songs to record them myself, I害羞草研究所檝e tried to find ways to either do them a little differently or make them more personal to me,害羞草研究所� said McLachlan. 害羞草研究所淚 didn害羞草研究所檛 want to do them the same. I didn害羞草研究所檛 want to play 害羞草研究所楽undown害羞草研究所� with exactly the same solo. How can I compete with his classic version?害羞草研究所�
