Hi Campania,
It's interesting what draws us back to GL! I first heard Gordon when I was 13 or 14, and wore out every album up to and including Salute...then I "lost" him. One day last year I decided I had to hear Christian Island again. From there I have become an ardent fan again and have to have my daily dose of Lightfoot

I started by listening to the earliest albums and working my way up to Harmony. I can't pick one favorite album for you to buy first, but I especially love Don Quixote, Old Dan's Records, and Dream Street Rose and...uh oh, better stop.

PS You have good taste in other music too
