Forgot to mention...
I was in Walmart Sunday and was perusing through the CD selection when I came across a 2 CD set: United Artists Collection. It was the only copy and the price was right so I snatched it up right away. After listening to the first disc I was elated. It's worth the price alone to hear Steel Rail Blues, I'm Not Sayin' and Ribbon of Darkness in their stripped down acoustic form, not to mention a whole slew of songs that had yet to fall upon my thirsty ears! Woo-hoo!
The songs that were re-recorded for Gord's Gold sound even better here, without the orchestral arrangements. And I am really liking "Oh Linda." What a song! I can't help but envy some of you who have known of this stuff for years and years.
I have owned this disc set for 2 days and can already see I will treasure it for years to come, along with the rest of my small but growing library.
Simply wonderful.
