Re: The "one" Gordon Lightfoot album you could never do without!

I'd like to think that "Did She Mention My Name" and "Sit Down Young Stranger" aka "If You Could Read My Mind" to me, have the most memorable songs of my life. "Approaching Lavender" will always rank as one of my top three Gordo songs. Same with "Your Love's Return." And then I would also throw into the mix "Don Quixote" because of the song, "Beautiful". "Softly", and "The Way I Feel" are songs that factor in there somewhere. So I'm looking at 1966-1972, to me the best of all possible GL eras.

I was lucky enough to have seen him in concert in 1972 at my college. His concert drew heavily from these albums. Thanks Gordo.

Lightfoot album I couldn't do without? Have to be "Shadows". My favorite song on it is "I'll Do Anything". Someone earlier mentioned "Tattoo", from 1983's "Salute" - "Tattoo" is one of the SONGS I couldn't do without.
