Gordon Lightfoot
In the '60s and '70s, Canadian songsmith Gordon Lightfoot achieved the perfect marriage of folk and pop. His rich baritone was mellifluous enough to carry the elegantly catchy melodies of songs that possessed considerable substance beneath their undeniable pop hooks. He began at the more mainstream end of the folk camp, but by the '70s, he transcended the genre and became a popular figure with both commercial appeal and aesthetic value. Bob Dylan himself has expressed an abiding interest in Lightfoot's output.
