This episode is a special one, boys and berries. Mike Messner, from the podcast Carefree Highway Revisited, joined me a few weeks ago to talk about the Gordon Lightfoot hit “Sundown.”
“Sundown” was Lightfoot’s only song to reach Number One on the Billboard Hot 100. During our conversation we each took our own approach to the song. So what you’re getting is a pretty well-rounded view of it.
In addition, we make a couple of fun diversions to another Lightfoot song and my own personal heartaches. It’s a fun ride, and I invite you to join us.

OMG, Claude, I am so glad I (finally) found your podcast. Gordon Lightfoot is also one of my favorite artists. (My absolute favorite being The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.) Soooo…this is a good installment with which to begin my journey of How Good It Is. Next up, for me will be the “Fitzgerald.”
Welcome aboard! I’m sure you’ll enjoy Mike’s show as well.
