My first GL album was "Did She Mention My Name" I bought this album in the late 70's when I still lived in Ontario (not far from GL's cousin's place near Alvinston). My sister came home with the album first. When I listened to it, I really liked it a lot. But being teenage siblings and my sister being older, I wasn't "suppost" to touch her stuff or play her records. I then ordered the album from the record store which didn't have it at the time, and I also ordered it by mail when it was taking so long from the record store. I ended up with 2 albums.
I got looking at them both just recently.
I have one that is an "Abridged version" it has Pussywillow, Cat-tails and Boss Man missing from it and the song arrangement is different from the other. I thought this was really quite strange.
Through the years I have gradually accumulated all of GL's albums. There isn't one that I don't like.
