I would skip Knotty Pine.
Well, I guess I should say...I always skip over Knotty Pine...lol.

I think it's too clever and I am not that crazy about the way he sings it.

Several people here gave me the advice to start at the beginning with Gordon's music. It turned out to be the best way for me and I love the early music.
I probably would not have bothered with the United Artist Collection if people here hadn't given me a heads up on it.
It is still one of my absolute favorites to listen to.

I love Beautiful. A guy can sing that song to me anytime...lol.
