For those of you who do not know, there are four Gordon Lightfoot albums which have never been released on compact disc anywhere in the world. They are "Old Dan's Records", "Shadows", "Dream Street Rose", and "Salute". Warner Brothers, to the best of my knowledge, still owns the masters to them, so it's their call. However, there is an ongoing campaign to get them released domestically in the U.S. There is a rumor that Early Morning Productions, Gord's management office, has expressed an interest in buying the masters and releasing them on their own, but this is completely unconfirmed. It's even more odd that they were never released in his native Canada.
