Carefree Highway Revisited (+)
Gordon Lightfoot is one of the greatest folk-rock artists of all time. And now there’s a podcast celebrating and discussing his work, song by song. It’s called Carefree Highway Revisited, and every episode, your host (that’s me, Mike Messner) will examine one of Gordon’s songs with the help of a special guest! So if that’s your cup of tea, give us a listen and give us a follow. We’ll see you on the Carefree Highway!
Your Host
Mike Messner
By day, Mike is a history and ethnic studies teacher; by night he’s a husband to Nancy, his wife of 21 years, and a father to Stephen, a high school sophomore.
In this episode, you'll hear the first part of Mike Messner's interview with Richard Harison, former road manager for Gordon Lightfoot. Richard will discuss his book, Once Upon a Red Eye, and talk about some of his experiences with Lightfoot on the road and in the studio. You'll also hear from the Mostly Folk podcast and from Kop's Records of Toronto!
