Hi, I have a couple of questions:

Judging on the albums I have already, would Don Quixote and Cold on the Shoulder be other good ones to investigate?

I heard sound clips of those albums off of barnesandnoble.com (I go there to sample sound clips LOL) and I really like what those 2 albums appear to be like based on the clips.

The funny thing is (yet it is a good thing too) is that each album that I have gotten so far is better than the previous Lightfoot album that I've gotten. For example, I got Sundown, and then Summertime Dream. And then I got Old Dan's Records, which is my favorite among the 3 so far!! (but that doesn't minimize the other 2, don't get me wrong LOL

).

For some reason "Farewell to Annabel" and "Same Old Obsession" really blow me away.

I have another question about the vocals thing...

How is his 70s vocals different from either his 60s vocals or 80s vocals? This would help me if I knew ahead of time so I have some idea of what to expect! Thanks!
