I agree, Bill. I bought songbook because of the rare, unreleased songs and for the accompanying book. I love the commentary on each of the songs. Also, at the time, Old Dan's Records, Shadows, Salute and Dream Street Rose weren't yet available on CD, so the songs from those albums that were profiled in Songbook were all like new songs to me.
Regarding what a previous poster said about listening to each individual album, I totally agree! Each album has it's own "feel", and listening from start to finish really gives the listener a sense of where Gord was in his life.
