my wife apparently heard me mumbling in the past year about how I need to get the "Songbook" CD set, because it showed up on X-mas morning. In fact, I'm listening to it right now as I type this. I'm in my late 40's, and didn't start getting into GL's music until the mid-late 70's, so I wasn't all that familiar with his early work, and some of this package is a real treat, especially disc #1. The other thing I appreciate is a lot of the cuts are early recordings, much earlier than I'm used to listening to, with different arrangements and his obviously higher voice. So all in all, a great package of GL's work.
