The first and greatest Gord's Gold album, missing only Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald which hadn't been written yet! Great new studio recordings of Lightfoot's early songs. Another 5 star CD!

CD Description
This re-release of Gordon Lightfoot's first greatest hits album, originally published in the mid-1970s, contains a medley of his first hit songs, "I'm Not Saying" and "Ribbon of Darkness" (the latter made famous by Marty Robbins), as well as many other '60s and early-'70s classics like "Early Morning Rain", the brooding "Sundown", and "If You Could Read My Mind". Lightfoot's sure way with a lyrical narrative, coupled with his appealingly diffident baritone voice, combines pop charm with artistic integrity, and these tracks sound as fresh today as when they were first recorded.
