Mine would be HIGHWAY SONGS , CAREFREE HIGHY and FADING AWAY . Would appreciate your opinions.( I am 52 by the way.)
Welcome Karina.
There was absolutely no reason for you to withhold your input.
Yes a number here do have a very detailed knowledge of many things Gord -related , usually
because to them just about every Lightfoot recording bar "May I", and a few others,
"makes the adrenalin rocket through their body and soul"
And you will find that many are only too keen to share their knowledge with others,usually no matter how daft or obscure the question!!
Since you ask for me personally every time I play the underrated and half-forgotten/ignored 1966 hit "Spin Spin"
it "casts me in a direct line back to" those halcyon days of my (well-spent) your "youth".

P.S. Karina
I guess that your name could be a version of "Carina"
