Gordon Lightfoot - Gord's Gold, Volume II (1988)

Posted By: Designol

Gord's Gold, Vol. 2 is a compilation album released by Canadian singer Gordon Lightfoot in 1988. Like the first Gord's Gold collection, Vol. 2 features re-recordings of earlier hits alongside the contemporary material. On Gord's Gold only the early songs that didn't match Lightfoot's 1970s sound (and whose original masters were owned by Lightfoot's former label, United Artists) were re-recorded. However, on Vol. 2 all tracks, apart from "Make Way (For the Lady)," "Ghosts of Cape Horn," Baby Step Back," and "It's Worth Believin'" were re-recorded. The album also contains the first appearance of "If It Should Please You," a previously unrecorded song that the band often performed in concert. Some tracks on Vol. 2 that had been released during the 1980s sound almost identical to their original recording. Additionally, the re-recorded tracks were recorded live in the studio.

This CD merits a solid four-star review. The CD doesn't warn you that it has re-recordings, but enough of the reviews do that the buyer should be aware what is on the CD. I enjoyed the songs on the CD, even if they weren't what I heard on the radio. Gordon Lightfoot is a storyteller, so for me this was just a slightly different version of the story. I especially enjoyed If It Should Please You, Cherokee Bend, and Ghosts of Cape Horn.

If you like Gordon Lightfoot's music and are not looking specifically for the radio versions, i think you will like this compilation.

Review by J. Sexton, Amazon.com

The second volume of Gord's Gold follows the same tradition of the first but in this case, it doesn't make sense, for re-recording tunes which were already in an updated sound defeats the purpose. I suppose Lightfoot just wasn't too thrilled with the original mixes so rather than remixing, he chose to do them over again. Included are such new verions of "The Wreck on the Edmund Fitzgerald," "I'm Not Supposed to Care," "Cherokee Bend" and "Race Among the Ruins" along with one new tune, "If I Should Please You," which had often been performed in concert but never recorded for an album. A rather poor excuse for a greatest-hits release.
