Title: Bad stuff
Product review: Growing up, I was exposed to a good deal of Gordon Lightfoot from my parents. No Lightfoot album got played more than this. It might explain why I dislike Lightfoot today. His folksy ramblings and easy-to-mock voice are slight annoyances. If you combine them with a horrid must-be-the-'80s adult contemporary sound, you got something bad: this album. While some tunes are passable, like "Tag Along", others sound dated as all out. Most offensive are "Stay Loose", "You Just Gotta Be", "Ecstasy Made Easy". The WORST tune on here has got to be "Anything For Love", with the worst elements of a/c: faceless synths, back-ups, and the rest. It was co-written with David Foster, which would explain the track's similarities to his icky Love Theme from St. Elmo's Fire. If Lightfoot had a worst album ever, it would be this one.
