Waiting for You

This is a good solid album from Gord. I always felt this was a much more solid album than the previous couple were. The lyrics on here seem to be of the nostalgic sort, giving it (for me anyway) a sort of bittersweet feel. There's also a good cover of a Bob Dylan song, Ring Them Bells. The instruments are played nicely, and Gord's singing is its usual distinctive sound. I particularly like the songs Restless, Wild Strawberries, and Drink Yer Glasses Empty. But the whole album has a really good overall sound that doesn't ever seem to get old. One of Gordon Lightfoot's better recordings, earlier or later.
