Summer Side of Life and In My Fashion
One written when Gord was younger, about being older and thinking about younger days (Summer Side of Life). The other written when Gord was older and actually looking back at his life (In My Fashion).

"Make Way For The Lady" and "No Mistake About It". Lady can be part 1 and Mistake can be part 2. They both have a great light jazz groove too. Later.

In My Fashion is probably my least favorite Gord song. That "rap" in the middle ruins it.

I'll have to agree with you there.
Wherefore And Why and Too Much To Lose seem to go together quite well for me.

I like that "rap" part in the middle. Although, to be perfectly honest, I never thought of it as a "rap". To each his own.
There's something for everyone.
John, interesting combination of songs. I'm curious, at what point in the song did they segue from Farewell to Annabel into Race among the ruins?

In my own opinion Douglas M.,I prefer to put Mountains and Mary Ann with Wherefore and Why. They sound perfect together! So much so it could all be one song.  Later!

I like "In My Fashion" I think the spoken words in the break (never thought of it as rap) gives the song a certain honesty.

Drink Yer Glasses Empty / Forgive Me Lord
Listen to those two songs together and tell me that it doesn't sound great. I think they were made for each other!

Inspiration Lady / Flyin' Blind
Well they start out similar but I'm not sure on this one! I think it's the acoustic guitar.

Ecstacy Made Easy / Lifeline
Well there's a match! I think Lifeline may be a cut from EOM...
