Simply the best

Review Score: (10/10)
If you've ever liked a Gordon Lightfoot song or have one or more of his albums and enjoy it, then you will not be taking a gamble if you pick up SHADOWS. In an illustrious career filled with memorable songs and exceptional albums, this, to me, is his finest moment. And when you take into account the fabulous material on his other albums, that's saying something. The songs are impeccably performed, sung, produced, and most of all, written. I've played this over and over and over since it was released in the eighties and it's as fresh and rewarding today as it was back then. How this album didn't become a hit is hard to explain, but if Lightfoot had released it a few years earlier when he was getting more airplay, this would probably be more widely recognized as the classic album it is. If you've never heard it, you're in for a very special treat.
