Album Review

Steve Leggett [allmusic.com]

Following the success of Sundown, Gordon Lightfoot continued his success by releasing a greatest-hits compilation. A double album (now a single CD), it contained the most popular songs from his Warner Bros. years on disc two, and he re-recorded many of his early songs for side one of record one. Although not as good, perhaps, as the originals, this did bring them up to date with his current sound style. Just about all the favorites are here (except ''The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald,'' which hadn't been recorded yet when this set was put together and appears on Lightfoot's second volume of Gord's Gold), making this a good general overview of a strong talent. When Warner transferred the double LP to Digital [FLAC], ''Affair on 8th Avenue'' was dropped from the program to make the set fit on a single disc. Randy Newman arranged the orchestration on ''Minstrel of the Dawn,'' by the way. [Review refers to the commercial CD release - no tracks are missing from the SONIC-RECREATION.COM transfer.]
