One of the leading singer/songwriters of the 1960s and '70s, Gordon Lightfoot was Canada's most successful contemporary folk artist, establishing himself as an important songwriter in the mid-'60s and becoming a major international recording star in the following decade. His songs were literate while remaining down to earth and he was able to deal with personal matters as well as global issues in a manner that was poetic and accessible. Lightfoot's rich, strong voice was a superb vehicle for his material, and his songs were versatile enough that many artists enjoyed success with them. His '60s albums established his reputation as a strong songwriter in the contemporary folk style and the richer, more mature approach of 1970's If You Could Read My Mind made him an international star. 1974's Sundown and 1976's Summertime Dream solidified his status as a major figure in the singer/songwriter movement. The latter also included his folk ballad masterpiece "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald." 1993's Waiting for You was a reminder that Lightfoot was still a talent to be reckoned with, and 2020's Solo was a late-career highlight.
