I had to drive to another county to get it and even risked getting the new Z28 rained on but it was well worth it.
Gord's voice is much, much stronger than what the sound clipped MP3's show. All one needs to do is listen to the title track (I did about 10 times so far!) and you can clearly hear how good his voice still is.
The songwriting is fantastic. Not one single song has been lost on me. "Have you gone away? Have you gone to stay? If you pass me by I will miss you. And if you can cry I can cry too". Just can't get any better than that.
Although it's damn near impossible to top songs like "The Watchman's Gone", "Seven Island Suite", "Shadows" etc., this CD could not have been any better. You really can't compare it to APPT or WFY or the rest of his work because just like all other 19 albums, this one too is unique and different than the rest.
Again, the sounds clips do not showcase this CD very well at all. I know they can't but they are sooooo compressed they would make Till Lindeman's voice sound weak. Gord's voice sounds very good indeed! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. On a scale of 1-10, I give it a 10+.
