Just so you don't buy the "wrong" album (there is no "wrong" GL album), you should know that the version you heard on the radio in the late 70s was the rerecording from the album Endless Wire. That is also the version on the Rhino boxed set Songbook. This recording was the second one GL released for that song. As Char said, the song was written and first released back in the 60s when Gord was still with United Artists. That is the version on Back Here On Earth and the United Artists Collection. Gord prefers the rerecording, and since that's the one you fell in love with, I'd go for that first.
