I think Val's reply was a bit too harsh. I do agree that this new release works on many levels, and that's great. But are they also going to include 2 previously unreleased tracks (as is the custom) so the die-hards like us have to buy the same songs once again? I think Gord was simply expressing the thoughts of many fans, like me, who would like to see something new. I'm sure I own pretty much the same albums that we all do, and I don't feel the need to pay again for songs that, between Gord's Gold 1, 2, and Songbook, I already have duplicate copies of. But I certainly won't criticize any of you who do buy it, for whatever reason. Just my opinion.
