Can you tell us where and when this was filmed? It is great!

This singer should be in both the Rock and Roll AND Country Music Halls of Fame -- period.

You just gotta love the man! Every now and then you see the flashbacks of Gordon in his prime, but you have to admit it's great to see him still playing, still singing, making the fans happy. Talk about longevity. Talk about a legend! You go Gord!

This song has more hooks than a salmon trawler.....should have 57 MILLION views.

And my town of 60000 couldnt fill a 4000 seat arena for his show last night, this is what keisha and Minaj(etc) have done to our youth.

THANK YOU, Gordon for your incredible music. You kept going while serving in the Army in the 70s and I have been a huge fan!!!

Gordie ... his D-18 ... a great tune. What more could you ask?

God bless ya, Gordo, you are still the man. Yes, his voice is thin and reedy now, and his gorgeous curls just a distant memory, but the talent never dies. I consider myself honored to have seen him many times live in the 70's. I adore him.

@rubbersole79 - yeah, he's a national treasure ....  a national CANADIAN treasure.

He's Canadian. But you knew that, right?
