My love for you
Echoes of Heroes
Prettiest Time of her life
Don't be sorry
Sands of time

Happy 2012 backatcha Rick

yes yes Rick sorry but I have to surmise that if those five are really new to you you cannot
be paying enough attention to what is put up here!! Not to mention that full details are available from the cornucopia known as lightfoot.ca
For your benefit and for any noobs to whom these are also new I will give some details
My Love For You must rank as one of the top "unreleased" songs performed by Gord and was written by Les Pouliot a.k.a Red Shea's brother.I just said "unreleased" which is not strictly true as it is featured not once but twice on the soundtrack of Gord's Hollywood debut movie
"Harry Tracy -Desperado'/Last of the Wild Bunch and has been much discussed in these forums and the youtube video has been embedded here at least once

The other songs on your list mainly feature on the Warner Brothers Demos album
Although the great "officially unreleased" song "Echoes Of Heroes" also turns up on Gord's setlist at the La Cave bar in Cleveland Ohio in May 1965. right click the following link then "save target as" to download an mp3 of that performance complete with Gord's intro which reveals his inspiration for writing it:-

I said "officially unreleased" because it was included on one of the two Koala albums cobbled together from the La Cave recording as a tax evasion scheme and released for public sale

for reference the complete contents of the WB Demos album is shown on

that page shows the total content of 32 songs plus links to a pair of rar format archived files on rapidshare that are no longer there for downloading However that nice Mr Google
found me an alternative rapidshare zip file of 180MB at:-

I now have a folder containing 32 high quality (320MBPS) mp3s totalling a shade under 80 minutes and from which a standard 700MB/80 minute CD of sufficient audio quality to satisfy the majority of fans may be burnt
