Everyone knows "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" but this is a very strong set of songs on the whole from this too often undervalued artist.

Most famous for 'The Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald', the album has half a dozen other great songs. 'Race Among the Ruins,' a catchy tune, was a minor hit in early 1977. 'The House You Live In' is loaded with folk wisdom. 'I'd do it again' showcases his amazing baritone. 'Too Many Clues' is, ironically, a cryptic puzzle as you try to figure out what he's talking about. 'Spanish Moss' is the bittersweet ballad that Lightfoot excels at. Finally, the title track will have you singing along by the second chorus.

I'm not sure which is a bigger injustice - that he is ranked past 3000 for top artists, or he's 129th best Canadian. Maybe it's the fact that this album was unranked without me, and even still, get 11,000th on the list. Clearly there's not enough who are familiar. Damn shame.
