Re: Billboard: Gordon Lightfoot's 10 Best Songs: Critic's Picks

Well, this is better expressed as a "Best 10 Hits" list. I really do think than any serious fan of Gordie would displace many songs from that list for album-tracks. I know I certainly would.

Re: Lightfoot In Mono

GV above asked for images of the album in mono. Like I said, it's very close to the UK release with GV said they had. But I'll stick in attachments of images of both.

Re: LIGHTFOOT by Nicholas Jennings - Sept.2017

I hope so. And when it comes out, I'll be waiting to get my copy in the post. There's no way I would not consider buying such a book that Gord willingly contributed to.
