Did She Mention My Name? is Canadian singer Gordon Lightfoot's third studio album, released in 1968 on the United Artists label. The album marked Lightfoot's first use of orchestration.[1]
"Black Day in July" was written by Lightfoot to inform people about racial strife in the United States. Lightfoot stated that he wrote the song "as a newspaper man would write an article."[2] The song was covered by The Tragically Hip for the 2003 Lightfoot tribute album, Beautiful: A Tribute to Gordon Lightfoot.
In his AllMusic review, critic Richie Unterberger praised the album, writing "Though a tad more erratic than his earlier efforts, his songwriting remained remarkably consistent. His characteristically bright, uplifting outlook became more diverse as well ..."
