    The UA catalog is still owned by EMI. I don't really like the re-recordings on GG I and especially the re-recordings on GG II either. Gordon claims that he only included the Endless Wire remake of The Circle Is Small on the boxed set and new comp is that he prefers it more but I prefer the original more. The fact is that remake was the charted single version and Rhino is a singles oriented label.

    He also claims that the re-recordings on GG II are for a live in studio effect. You can't get a live feel in the studio although you can record live in studio but that's a different story. Plus he claimed that he didn't like the original mixes of the songs he re-recorded for GG II and didn't want to remix either. The original recordings and mixes sound just fine.

    Shure wish Steve could remaster the whole Gordon Lightfoot box set.

    And put Daylight Katy on there as well.

    I agree that Daylight Katy is one of his best songs
