Which UA multi CD compilation set is best?

[Raynald]

I would like to get my hands on Gordon's first four albums on CD. It seems there are two choices. There is a two disc set of his first four albums and another 3 disc set that includes his fifth live album. Price is actually pretty close so I am leaning towards the latter, but I was wondering if there might be one that stands out in terms of sound quality of the transfers or writtem material. Thanks.

I would opt for the 3 CD "Original Lightfoot" collection. This will include the live album "Sunday Concert", which is a wonderful album in it's own right. Plus all 5 albums have been remastered from the original tapes and the sound quality is excellent. Easily worth the slightly higher price.
