Yes Jennifer I do know what you mean but, having that prize possesion, of owning them all, is a wonderful feeling.

I can listen to 1969 Lightfoot or 2004, whenever I feel like it. Plus everytime I go to my fav music store, I always go check the Lightfoot Cd's. Sometimes there may be a new one, from the UK or somewhere's else.

Not new to the sense of new songs, but best of, Classic Lightfoot recordings. I do have all the songs but buy them anyway to add to the collection.

And then there's always good great bootlegs roaming around. If your lucky enough to get those. They make you feel like you bought a new Lightfoot concert CD. It's recorded live, Gord may tell a story before introducing the next track. Always interesting.

Then there's the DVD's, the VHS, old interview, etc. And other artists covering his material. It never ends.

Look at Elvis Presley's fan, there still things to buy about him, 29 years after he's gone.

My suggestion to you if you want the older ones, get "Sunday Concert Plus", or "Back Here On Earth"

"Sunday Concert Plus" comes from the UK {GERMANY} if Im not mistaken, it is a little more expensive, but you get The plus. A Bob Dylan track, "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues." Gord 's own "Spin Spin", Movin, a real 60's song, and I'll Be Alright.

Enjoy Jennifer.. Cheers...Jesse.
