First off: I do have the CD "Lightfoot!/The Way I Feel" which is a fused album of the first 2 studio releases. I do have that covered.

I was contemplating the purchase of "Did She Mention My Name/Back Here On Earth (Beat Goes On)" but this cost $14.48, whereas the UNITED ARTISTS collection (which is a compilation of all of his first 4 releases) costs $7.85. I could save practically twice as much money if I got this instead.

Even though I would be getting part of what I already have if I bought the United Artists Collection, I would be saving money. I'm just curious if the United Artists Collection has lyrics in the album. If it does not, then I will end up getting the "Did She Mention My Name/Back Here On Earth (Beat Goes On)", but if United Artists DOES, then I will DEFINITELY choose the latter.

Don't know about others' United Artists Collection(s) but mine did NOT come with lyrics. However, by now...I know the words anyhow!! ;) If you're really interested in saving money you could always buy the UA Collection and print the lyrics from this site. At least I imagine it's OK to do that.

Thank you Sheila for telling me this; as a matter of fact, that makes me actually WONDER though if I should think about exactly HOW I want to purchase this!

Does "Did She Mention My Name/Back Here On Earth (Beat Goes On)" have lyrics in the liner notes though?

I know I could print it, but a part of me would love the lyrics to be in the liner notes instead, but if it isn't present THERE either, I'll deal.

I don't know if te BGO reissiues are remastered. My UA copies aren't. I wouldn't hesitate to pay $15 for a 2fer. Especially a GL 2fer. If you don't have the extra $7, I guess you'll just have to cash in those Milli Vanilli CD's.
