Default Best of the West Vol 1

OK, I stumbled on this album on iTunes. It has 3 Lightfoot songs I've never heard of:
"It's a Long Way Back Home"
"Don't Beat Me Down"
"Fortune Teller"

I didn't see these songs on Wayne's list. Anybody else heard of this? I assume someone licensed some old masters...

the first 2 are from the Back home from earth album... i'm assuming fortune teller is The Gypsy from the same album (wrong name for the tune!)

That's "Back Here On Earth" album and.....hoo-boy, those people at I-Tunes are supposed to be so "professional". Har-har-har.

Actually B, iTunes, while a wonderful resource, is known for having a bunch of stuff like that floating around. It pays to be an educated customer. But don't throw the baby out with the bathwater, LOL.

They probably changed the name of The Gypsy so not to offend any Gypsies. Good song though - and a wonderful album.
