Well Dan, I think you can be saved with regard to disliking The Auctioneer, since Gord didn't write it. The original version by Leroy VanDyke I think is better. As for May I, well I have to confess I don't know that one. Being a student I don't yet have the money to own every Gord album, so there are some I don't know yet. But my collection is coming along.
One song that surprises me is Cotton Jenny. Now I know a lot of people like this song so don't get mad at me. I didn't like it at first because it was so country sounding. Now, I still don't really love it, but it's a fun song to sing. If I am in the car, I will play this one just to sing along, I can't explain it.
Tom, I wholeheartedly agree. I want people to be honest and if someone doesn't like The Watchman's Gone, well, that's really interesting. We all have such different tastes. But I must admit, I don't understand. Not only do I like this tune, I am with you, it's one of my all time Gord favorites. What happened to you has happened to me before. Many times, I will hear a tune for the first time, but not really LISTEN. This happened with Pussywillows Cat-Tails. I used to skip over it, but then it grew on me and I really like it now.
