Product description

Product Description

Gordon Lightfoot

Âé¶¹Çø.ca

Warm, gentle, and welcoming, Gordon Lightfoot's folk-rock disarms even the most cynical listener. When his bright melodies mesh with his full, deep voice and his innocent poetry, the result is almost hypnotic, like floating away on a soft cloud. Of course, after 21 songs' worth, you might float into a deep slumber. In 1975 Lightfoot rounded out this hits collection by revisiting nine of his 1960s compositions, including "I'm Not Sayin'/Ribbon of Darkness," "Song for a Winter's Night," "Early Morning Rain," and "Steel Rail Blues." Rather than maintain the direct approach of his early work, he adds the string arrangements that mark his 1970s work. The smashes "Sundown" and "If You Could Read My Mind" accompany outright gems such as "Cotton Jenny" and "Cold on the Shoulder," although this set predates "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald." --Marc Greilsamer

    I never realized how much I appreciated Gordon Lightfoot's myriad of hits, primarily from the 1970's. The lyrics are reflective and insightful, and the music brings back a flood of cherished memories. This CD is first rate value, and I suspect most buyers will be content with the purchase.

    All songs re-recorded (except for a few) and, in many cases, sounding fresher than the originals. For those only now discovering Lightfoot, this record is an excellent starting point. And for the old fans like me, you will not be disappointed with the new light and colour added to these timeless songs.

    Highly recommended.

    I just finished listening to it and it's truly wonderful. I will be sure to get lots of use out of this splendid CD. Gordon Lightfoot was one of the greatest artists to perform in Canada and even Elvis did a few of his tunes. He was respected world wide and always pleased his audiences. Great CD and super value on this! Thank you.

    Gordon's songs have a way that is hard to duplicate. He packs a lifetime into 3 or 4 minutes. A few like the railway song may be out dated in that it boasts of logging, mining, factories etc at the expense of the natural world they took over when the railway came. Other songs are more traditional western tinged folk. Cheating women and hard drinking men. Great stuff.

    Wonderful CD full of Gordon's amazing vocals.
    Well worth the money as it has such a relaxing - if sometimes a bit sad - feel to it.

    Hace a?os que soy amante de la m¨²sica d Lightfoot. Compr¨¦ este CD por algunas versiones diferentes a las de su etapa con UA. L¨¢stima que falte la de "Affair on Thrd Avenue". Por otro lado recomiendo el pack Songbook que recorre su carrera en 4 Cds.
