Hello! I'm new and have been poking around for a few weeks -- I saw this topic and thought I'd reply. I am 26 and was raised in a house full of Lightfoot albums. There is something about his music that is so totally soothing to me. I think I like him more than my parents do at this point! I remember going to see him in concert when I was little enough to wear pajamas to the show. Anyway, my brain must've been a sponge for those great tunes, because I listened to DSR for the first time in probably 15 years, and some of the chords, lyrics and phrasing were so familiar -- like an old friend. I can't pick a favorite -- I might be able to pick 20 favorites!

Thanks for letting me ramble,
Amy
