The only songs that I still don't care for are End Of All Time and Couchiching. I've finally learned to like the rest of them, at long last! This may not be my favorite of all albums, but I can now see what eveyone else see's in this album.

"D",I think it'll be a great while before you can relate to or appreciate,"End Of All Time". You're 17 and really only have a very short life to look back on,if you chose to do so. GL is 65 and has done and seen lots of things,so he has a lot to reflect on as do most of the fans here that heard him over 30 years ago. So,if you don't get it now,you will once you've had a life beyond High School or even College.

As for Couchiching,I guess you have to see the place to really get it! I like it anyways. Been me,later! (Wait a minute! My name isn't later! It's Walter! )

Pretty. Having seen this, I would like the song if it had more beat to it, you know, more like a rock song.

I CAN count on one hand the number of albums I've bought and loved from beginning to end from the very first play... Harmony is one and I suppose at 54 you start to see yourelf in some of the songs ... Pet Sounds was another, I was 16 at the time, different emotions I suppose... I think the joy of Harmony for me is that there are no songs on there that drag, I never feel the urge to skip a track, I always want to savour every one. For Mr L to produce something so perfect after all he's been through is down in no certain terms to the fact that after Dylan he's the number two best singer-songwriter in the world today... long may he reign...

Stationmaster, thanks so much for the wonderful pictures! GL's always singing about Canada, and I never have a clue what it looks like. (Went to the International Peace Garden once a million years ago, and took the ferry to Victoria a few years back. Sorry to say, that's the extent of my Canadian rambling. Although I did find out recently that my great grandfather was born and raised in Ontario-County of Glengarry, if that means something to anyone.)
