Haven't had my "Harmony" yet (and it's killing me!) Come on, AmazonUK, you can do better than this!!!

Cold on the Shoulder
Dream Street Rose
Shadows
(with Salute a really close fourth!)

Great topic! My favourite 3 are : Sundown, COTS, and definitely Harmony. I think Harmony especially is making all of us feel right about our own worlds again! Thanks for the read,

Not in any particular order

Harmony
Endless Wire
Summertime Dream

I would say Gord Gold and Songbook but that would be cheating.

Don Quixote 06-01-2004 12:47 PM

Don Quixote
Did She Mention my Name
Harmony

But, actually, that was hard to narrow down. I could have included at least five others! But then it wouldn't have been three!

Sundown
Waiting For You

Tie for third between Summertime Dream and Harmony http://www.corfid.com/ubb/biggrin.gif But ask me again in a year and the answer might be different.

My three favorites? Lets see...today I will pick, Sundown. Sundown was my introduction to GL music. Shadows, and Waiting for you. If I think about this to long I'll keep changing my mind, so there it is!

Sit Down Young Stranger (I prefer the original title.)

Sundown

Harmony

(I like the rest almost or just as much but I could only do 3.) http://www.corfid.com/ubb/smile.gif Aurevoir! http://www.corfid.com/ubb/cool.gif

Is APPT really your favorite Gord album? I find that interesting. I think you are being sarcastic, but I could be wrong.

Mine are:

If You Could Read My Mind

Sundown

Don Quixote

I think APPT may have been DMD3's first CD and as such holds a special place for him. I LOVE the album myself - out of the now 20 where would you place it ?

Hmmmm. I do like it very much. I don't think it's one of his strongest albums. Out of 20, I would have to place it at 19 or 20. I just love all his other albums so much and I can't think of one that doesn't have six or seven truly great songs on it. Endless Wire may be 20, I don't know. East of Midnight probably 18. It's hard. All his stuff is so great. But I understand how your initiating album can hold a special place for you.

I with Watchman on this one. How can I choose? It depends on mood and attitude, and that changes daily. I'm still updating my CD collection (have it ALL on vinyl, but no turntable anymore http://www.corfid.com/ubb/frown.gif)and just choosing what to get next is difficult. I just discovered Amazon, so I have been a shopping fool everytime I get a little extra money. (being single is good, my money goes where I want it to) Believe it or not, EOM was one of my first purchases. I'm all about the lyric, and those are fantastic. I already had WFY, APPT. I hadn't heard some of the songs in (gasp!)years. Totally different perspective on them after so long away. For instance, I used to think Tatoo (Salute) was so-so, now it's one of my favorites.
Well, I'm just babbling now. It all comes down to one thing...I can't choose.
