Title: Waiting For Lightfoot's best? Look Elsewhere.
Product review: I have always appreciated Gordon Lightfoot's music, but of all of his albums I have, this one is by far his weakest effort. The opening cut "Restless" is half-decent and autumnal, but the rest of the album is forgetable. Lightfoot's vocals are lackadaisical and uninspiring, and the lyrics are often very difficult to understand. Sadly, it often sounds like he's just mumbling to himself. This is a dull and unimaginative album, and would only appeal to only his most avid fans. His best days of making really good music have long since passed, and maybe it's time for Lightfoot to sit back, relax, and take the rest of life off by going fishing or hunting in his native Canada (See my album review for his double CD set "The United Artists Collection" for reviewing Lightfoot's BEST music).
