It can not be more Canadian on this Canada Day to listen to this dedication to Canada's Gord Lightfoot 🇨🇦
Such a beautiful distraction and healing moment from today’s news. Thanks Gordon. Thanks Special Guests. Thanks
Yes it has been a wonderful distraction and a nostalgic memory of that time where we once were!
Happy Canada Day!
🕊❤️🇨🇦🎶🍁💫🙏🏼
A beautiful Canuck celebration! So proud to be Canadian when I see this kind of talent come together.
A beautiful tribute to one of the greatest singer songwriters of our time. RIP Good Sir!
God bless Gordon Lightfoot. God bless the performer/friends who performed his great music. And God Bless the CBC for doing what no one else does: showing us to ourselves. I'm bessed to have been born here to appreciate all our amazing homegrown talent. 🇨🇦 Happy Canada Day!
Amen!
Happy Canada Day
🇨🇦 🎶🏞 🫎 🦌 ❤
What a blessing to have this video pop up on CZcams this Canada 🇨🇦 Day Monday afternoon 2024.
Gordon would have loved this tribute to him at what Massey Hall is often called, "the house that Gordon Lightfoot built!"
I must say it was a deeply moving performance in his honour !
I've been a huge fan since I was 7 years old when my sister brought home his 1st album and they spoke to my heart and soul!
Teared up watching this tonight!
Thank you, CBC, for this July 1st musical treat!
🕊❤️🇨🇦🎶💫💃🏻🍁
I've always called it The Church of Gord - he thought it pretty funny when I told him that in 2001..lol..
Thanks, Canadian Broadcasting Company and First Nation
I loved falling to sleep with Gordon Lightfoot in my tender teens in the 70's, and still do today.
Watching Geddy and Alex perform together in any context = pure JOY! (Loved Geddy's voice here...sounded like him and yet unlike him. Lovely!) Happy Canada Day everyone!
To be there, in Massey Hall, celebrating Gordon's music with so many like-minded fans and all these musicians was beyond magical!! Gordon has been on my life's soundtrack for as long as I remember... so many beautiful memories have been created while Gord's music was playing in the background! This concert was incredible and I will cherish forever receiving my ticket from my sister for Christmas and getting to travel from BC with her to share this amazing experience!
Wow what a wonderful memory thanks for sharing!
Glad you had a wonderful time!
Happy Canada Day
🕊❤️🇨🇦🎶🍁🏞🫎🦌
Ditto.
Agreed!
Thank you CBC for this masterpiece tribute to Gordon - so emotional and a perfect Canada Day outpouring of love to watch. ❤️🇨🇦
A glorious night forever in my heart as is our legend Gordon Lightfoot.. Miss you Gordon.. a lot.
“I think that any Canadian that looked at music as something serious to enlighten, enlarge their lives, admired Gordon… “ Beautifully said Geddy! 👍 PS. Happy Canada Day! ❤🇨🇦
A wonderful evening at Massey Hall. Gord would have been delighted.
I am sure Gordon Lightfoot was smiling in heaven watching this wonderful tribute to him. 🇨🇦
Was a privilege to have been able to attend this incredible concert honouring an incredible artist and human Gordon Lightfoot.
I was there! I was SO overwelmed by it all. It was an incredible show!
So amazing to see Geddy Lee attack that bass on stage with Blue Rodeo.
As an "honourary" Canadian, thank you for this concert. I hope that it will eventually be released on DVD in its entirety. Happy Canada Day from the USA!

What a fantastic tribute to Gordon Lightfoot! The Lightfoot band was note perfect and it meant so much to me to hear them again.
Geddy & Alex didn't disappoint.... i could have done without the friggin ad break in the middle of their performance tho 🙄🙄🙄 happy canada day all 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Ha , ha , !! How did you like Alex keeping up with the original strumming tempo !! Only the best
dude that's your fault for not knowing how to use an ad blocker lol
The last song gave me goosebumps. So many greats honouring such a great. Gord attended high school with my two eldest siblings. The way Orillia continually honours Gordon Lightfoot makes me proud of my hometown.
I think I played that last song 10 times ❤️
The greatest of all time.
Perfect timing! I just happened to be here. Gordon Lightfoot is my all-time favorite music hero! Rest in peace, Mr. Lightfoot. And thank you. 🙏🙏🙏

@@greatunz67 Canadian teamwork ✌🧡
One of the best
Thank you Gordon for the memories.
The incomparable Carter Lancaster on electric guitar!!
Thank you for sharing this. Lightfoot was a superior musician.
this is an unbelievable tribute. thank you all! Gordon is smiling for sure
Thanks CBC. Good to see all the old guys that are still around. Gordon had a daughter! Got to see a bit of second generation . They all seemed to practice hard to do his musical legacy justice 👍💟 . Amazed with Blue Rodeo's band member on dobro and later mandoline! 💓 His stetson and embroidered Canadiana suit 👍🩷🎶
Just brilliant...
I hope the CBC puts the entire concert out on DVD, available to be purchased from outside of Canada. It would sell out. I own a region free DVD player (very affordable) so my DVD collection comes from many countries worldwide. Owning the entire concert would mean the world to me. Gordon lives on in all of us, never to be forgotten. I will admit to several teary-eyed moments - my cat noticed & curled up on me to comfort me. Happy Canada Day 🇨🇦
Gordon Lightfoot WAS Canada. His passing in 2023 almost seems fitting because our country has lost so much of what it was that made it so good in the past, it's a shadow of the country it used to be, and without Gord in it now it will forever be different. So glad i grew up in the years when Gord was woven into our fabric.
I hope they release the FULL concert on DVD for purchase. For those of us outside of Canada all you need is a region free DVD player!
Gordon died in 2023. The concert on May 23 was 19 songs. OH So Sweet/Meredith Moon was cut at her request. This CBC video has 18 of 19 songs. They were out of order in this video.
@@lightfootfan yeah i counted wrong i was looking at it on setlist fm lol
@@hltvieira6354 You're good this is the full show, i was mistaken, it's only missing one song by Meredith Moon and one by Burton Cummings doing his 'Gordon Lightfoot as done by Rod Stewart' skit that he did on SCTV back in the 80's
@@greatunz67
That sounds like a trip. Geddy Lee doing Rod Stewart doing Gordon Lightfoot? Hmm....🤔
I learned. of Gordon by the Newfies doing seismic back in the 80s 90s. The music helped with loneliness of 4 or 5 months away from home.......RIP Gord
He was a Great Artist and this was a terrific show an tribute, Nathan Indiana.
What a surprise! I was binging on Gordon Lightfoot and just happened to find this on CZcams. And it was just released yesterday. These musicians did a fantastic job and I'm sure Mr. Lightfoot would be deeply honored. Thanks to everyone who made this possible. Gordon Lightfoot is my all-time favorite singer, songwriter, poet and musician. May his soul rest in peace. 🙏🙏🙏
PS. Happy Canada Day to my neighbors to the North!💕💕💕
Where's Ron Sexsmith?
Greetings from the shores of lake superior 🇫🇮🇺🇸
Simply beautiful 😢❤🇨🇦forever
Wonderful tribute, thanks to everyone who made it all possible. Superb!!!
Awesome glad I found it Thanks Gordon for the memories
Amazing. Beautiful.
Never forgotten Gordon!
Beautifully done, simply wonderful.
Wonderful tribute to our genius who came to us in the form of Gorden Lightfoot! We are blessed, thank you
Thank-you CBC
Love and miss you Gordon Lightfoot!
(Can you please credit the artists somewhere in the title and/or description?)
Bless everyone!

In my house growing up he was known simply as Gordo.
thank you for posting this
If there were a Canadian Rushmore Gordon would be the first one carved on it,
Tom Cochrane doing the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Very Nice. Even with the mispeaks.
Amazing to have this show on CZcams, but the sound level is so quiet relative to the jarringly loud ads that randomly come on - makes it so hard to properly enjoy.
An eclectic assortment of Canadian artists with a wide spectrum of Lightfoot songs, each with the fingerprint of its performer, in Gord's living room on Canada Day. Alrighty then...
❤CBC, PLEEEASE tell me you'll be releasing this concert to purchase! 🙏🏻For decades and decades, whenever I listen to his songs I marvel at how anything can be so beautiful.❤ Listening to this took me back to wonderful times, and I cried and I cried and I cried. 💔🎶♥️☮️
Only thing missing is J.P. Cormier doing Railroad Trilogy
Now THAT would have been awesome. I have seen JPC twice at Hugh's room and he did a great job.
@@bonniyerex7012 Yep--there's a you tube video of a bunch of east coast musicians doing the same sort of tribute to Gordy--JP did Trilogy and it was epic---he put everything into it--he looked exhausted at the end--sounded like the whole Lightfoot band was backing him--he owned that song
@@neilhudson6194 how do I find that tribute?
@@bonniyerex7012 type in "Gordon Lightfoot tribute at Nova Scotia's Stan Rogers folk festival 2023"
@@neilhudson6194 I found it, thanks and listened to all three parts. I loved 'the Pony Man' but the highlight was JP doing justice to that iconic Trilogy. Thanks again.
AWESOME!!🙂
Gorden was So Blessed for Us All ❤❤❤❤❤
A beautiful tribute to Gordon Lightfoot. It's sad and too bad that the organizers declined to include the iconic Canadian songwriter and musician Ron Sexsmith, who Gordon Lightfoot so admired.
The concert was magical. Unfortunately CZcams here in the States inserted commercials in the MIDDLE of the songs. I am fine with the free version of CZcams having commercials but would it be so difficult to put the commercials BETWEEN the songs?
R.I.P. legend.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
All my life there was Gord.
Ged sounds great on this. Not straining and a good level for his voice now.
Will this be for sale in FLAC format for download?
🇨🇦👽🎸👍🏼
👍👍🇨🇦✌️🇨🇦✌️🇨🇦✌️👍👍
Fantastic tribute but, all I can hear is Lightfoot’s voice.
So nice to see PeeWee Charles on pedal steel for this!
I thought the same!
No Rita McNeal?
CZcams just inserted a commercial in the middle of Meredith Moon’s song!
This was not a discrimination free event, regrettably. Hopefully the issues will be addressed soon. Nice people don’t let these things go.
care to extrapolate on that?
@@neilhudson6194 sure thing. Thanks for asking. There have been some unresolved workplace discrimination issues in the starfish entertainment / blue rodeo camp. You can find some posts on their socials about it, with links to more data. Ask management, if you like. 👍🏻
@@neilhudson6194 are you not being "nice people" right now??? Please think of the marginalized communities unrepresented by this concert performance - The left-handed, Virgo's, Highland dancers, Certified accountants, Taiwanese, the Colour-blind... I could go on.... Ron Sexsmith fans, Barbershop Quartets...
@@PeterByker Yep--that stage is only so big
1:12:42
I was hoping to cop some licks off the invisible pedal steel player during Black Day in July, but he's too fast for me. :/
"Alberta Bound' really could've used some old timey clog dancers on stage.
Too many commercials. You can’t put commercials in the middle of the song. Nor can you make them louder than the actual content.
The level of the show is way too low. I've got my volume full blast just to listen normally. That's why the commercials are deafening when they come on.
Spread the meme ... Sankofa Square to be renamed by the people to "Gordo Square". In honor of our great Canadian artists .. Gordon Lightfoot and Gord Downie.
too many ads to enjoy, had to turn it off
Gain needs to be increased for music parts.
True. The level is far below the commercials. How does our national broadcaster manage to screw that up?
Ridiculous interrupting commercials. What an insult to our man.
.
Tom! You messed up the words three times. 😂 Nervous?
Ron Sexsmith was snubbed - shame on you.
Shame on who?----also there was probably a lot of performers who would have been great doing this--how do you know he in particular was "snubbed"?
Ron had a special relationship with Gordon and there was a lot of support for him to be included in the tribute concert. The organizers went with popularity over substance.
@@neilhudson6194, From The Globe and Mail - May 9, 2024
Gordon Lightfoot tribute show shuts out key performers, including long-time promoter Bernie Fiedler
Also missing from the tribute concert bill is singer-songwriter Ron Sexsmith, who took to social media to lament his absence: “It’s very upsetting to me,” he wrote on X. His fans rallied in his support.
“There’s no bigger Lightfoot devotee than Ron Sexsmith,” commented Lightfoot biographer Nicholas Jennings.
so much this. boggles the mind
@@neilhudson6194, I'm awaiting a follow up reply from you.
So sad to see his daughter vandalized with tattoos.
What a patently stupid comment
her choice.
@@lightfootfan Yes, and a horrible choice.
@@redpillpharmacy6877 not for her it seems. And no need for anyone to comment either way.
