It's sad, but it seems no one much cares about CD's anymore. The tide has turned and digital downloads are the mainstay these days. You may never get the chance to purchase "Gord's Gold" on CD the way it was presented on vinyl again. I hope either Gord or Linus Entertainment will, in the future give us a chance to download Gord's albums in their entirety in the future. The business has changed so much in the last few years that many musicians have admitted a new CD is unlikely. Recently, Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull postulated that a new Tull album may never happen, instead various, newly recorded songs might be available for download on their web site. I would encourage Gordon and his people to find a way to purchase gordonlightfoot.com from Val and set it up that way. Seems to be the wave of the future
