sundownbuff - I just picked up the Lightfoot box with four cd's and a book. The first song on the first cd is "Remember Me". I really like the song although as Gord says himself in the book, I came off "sounding like a cross between Jim Reeves and Pat Boone." I'm glad he went on to develop his own unique, one of a kind, sound. By the way, the first song of his I heard was "If You Could Read My Mind". I just chalked it up as another quality pop tune at the time. (This didn't mean much then as there were quite a few high quality pop song writer/musicians around) Little did I know who much this up and coming folk phenomenon would inspire my own songwriting and musical taste in the coming years.
