Hi GregMav,

Welcome to this discussion board.

I think we will be seeing the 'Fab Four' released on CD rather sooner than later.

[Gossip on]
Recently a fan has been talking to Gordon Lightfoot after a show asking him about the release date of the 'Fab Four' and Gordon Lightfoot indicated that they might possibly be released next spring.
[Gossip off]

As far as I know it is not a question of if they will come out on CD but rather when. And I am happy that Rhino Records will be doing the CD release because they did an excellent job on the Songbook.

I hope they will release four single CD's just like the albums and don't pack them into a compilation. But I guess that's just a matter of personal taste.

I haven't heard of a special 'rarities' CD yet, but if I consider the quality of the unreleased songs on Songbook, I definately look forward to that. Even though I doubt we will be seeing such a CD.

'Fab Four':
4 albums which have been released on vinyl but are not available on CD:
1. Old Dan's Records (1972)
2. Dream Street Rose (1980)
3. Shadows (1982)
4. Salute (1983)
