Summertime Dream»rank: 9284par: Gordon Lightfoot
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:lf you owned only one in the series of superlative albums Gordon Lightfoot recorded for Reprise in the '70s, chances are this was it. lt's still a great choice. Summertime Dream became his biggest U.S. seller thanks to the success of 'The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald'--a song chronicling the 1975 sinking of a giant ore carrier in Lake Superior and surely one of the least likely radio hits of all time. Lightfoot created a haunting, peculiarly Canadian tale of the struggle of human will against a natural world that ... |

Recent Songs»rank: 6605par: Leonard Cohen
Chroniques et points de vue:Amazon.ca:Though he's long been revered as the brooding writer of some of Canada's most famous contemporary verse, Leonard Cohen's wicked sense of humour has often been overlooked. Rarely is the balance of tragedy and comedy as compelling as it is on 1979's Recent Songs, the low-key follow-up to the Phil Spector-produced Death of a Ladies' Man. A beguiling softness and warmth that recall his earliest recordings replace the aggression of that album. The softly strummed guitars and delicate violin lines perfectly suit the opener, 'The Guests' (also the opening song ... |

For the Roses»rank: 9907par: Joni Mitchell
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:Sandwiched between the solitary, heart-on-her-sleeve confessions of Blue and the ravishing pop of Court and Spark, 1972's For the Roses captures Joni Mitchell in a deceptively subdued period of transition. Still hewing to a spare sound, Mitchell ventures beyond the elegant folk sources of earlier records to explore her love of blues and jazz-based harmony, writing as much on piano as guitar; thematically, the earnest reveries and heartbroken dirges of before give way to a more detached, even journalistic perspective and darker, grittier settings, most strikingly on 'Cold Blue ... |
