Am I correct in thinking that a GL box set was issued in Canada only.
Just interested in knowing more about it.
How many discs, tracks, packaging etc...

Thanks.

Frank v.

Char,
I've got Songbook.
This was another Box set released only in Canada several years before.

Hi Frank - me again!
You must be thinking of The United Artist Years compilation. It was called The Original Lightfoot. It has 3 discs of songs from 5 albums he did for 5 five years with U.A. 65, 66, 67, 68 & 69. I assume it is available in the U.S. - most of the original recordings were done in the States. It's a black box with a white silhouette of Gord in his younger days.

Char,
It seems the three disc box set (Canadian only) release is the complete five album UA set.Where as the UA collection double disc (on Florian's site) covers four albums excludes Sunday concert.(I have this one).The former is the only GL release never issued in Europe.

Frank.
