Although the Canadian-bred Gordon Lightfoot is a virtual deity in his homeland, he has not achieved the icon status of Dylan, Neil Young, or even Paul Simon on American soil. Lightfoot has been a prolific and consistent songwriter and performer since the '60s, and his work has been covered endlessly. "If You Could Read My Mind" alone has spawned 100 different versions! Yet Lightfoot remains more a secret hero than a household name.
Rhino's 4-disc box sums up an estimable career in a deluxe package replete with chestnut favorites, rarities, and seldom-heard early efforts. Folk purists will be overjoyed with Disc 1, where Lightfoot is basically unaccompanied. The spare "Early Mornin' Rain" and "Bitter Green" are arguably more effective than their over-produced '70s counterparts. It is the '70s material included on Discs 2 and 3, however, that put Lightfoot on the map on both sides of the border. With "Sundown" and "Carefree Highway," he assumed a laid back perfection. Why he wasn't able to carry that commercial success through the ensuing decades has more to do with a fickle market and the onslaught of technology than it does with any serious decline in his art.
