Der Kanadier Gordon Lightfoot nutzte sein Talent fürs Songschreiben, um als Musiker mit Schallplattenaufnahmen Karriere zu machen. Zunächst war dies nicht das Ziel des eher mittelmäßigen Sängers gewesen, der von seinem Talent, gute Songs kreieren können, lebte. Sein Debütalbum 'Lightfoot’ wurde 1965 in New York aufgenommen. Der Gitarrist David Rea und Bassist Bill Lee sorgten für die spärliche akustische Begleitung und den Rahmen für Lightfoots klaren und überzeugenden Gesang. Zu den Songs zählen spätere Lightfoot-Klassiker wie ‚Ribbon Of Darkness’, ‚For Lovin' Me’, ‚Home From The Forest’ und ‚Early Morning Rain’. Zur Zeit seines zweiten Albums für United Artists, aufgenommen 1967 in Nashville, war der Einfluss des 'Folk Rock' bei der Produktion offenkundiger. Lightfoots Fähigkeit, aus regionalen Erfahrungen Songs zu schreiben, wurde insbesondere bei Liedern wie ‚Canadian Railroad Trilogy’ deutlich. Insgesamt 26 Titel, alle Songs seiner ersten beiden Alben.
Product Information
Canada's Gordon Lightfoot parlayed his songwriting into a recording career, though this wasn't a case of a mediocre singer who happened to craft fine songs. His debut album, 'Lightfoot!', was recorded in New York in 1965 with guitarist David Rea and bassist Bill Lee providing the spare acoustic backing for Lightfoot's clear, confident vocals. The songs include such Lightfoot classics as ‘Ribbon Of Darkness’, ‘For Lovin' Me’, ‘Home From The Forest’, and ‘Early Morning Rain’. By the time of his second United Artists album, recorded in Nashville in 1967, the 'folk rock' influence was more evident in the production and Lightfoot's ability to write from his regional experience apparent in songs like ‘Canadian Railroad Trilogy’. This 26-song collection comprises the entirety of Lightfoot's first two albums.
