Default 1001 Songs To Hear Before You Die

Have just visited Waterstones here in UK, Waterstones is our answer to Barnes & Noble. Came across a book, "1001 Songs To Hear Before You Die" My immediate thought was "if there are no Gordon Lightfoot songs, bin the book" There are 3 GL songs in there, 'If You Could Read My Mind' that had to be included, 'Rainy Day People' and 'Sundown' so the editor whoever he or she is, has some good taste.

I could safely say that about 199 of the 1001 songs would be Lightfoot tunes had I been the author of that list..
