À propos de cet audio

 On this episode of The Sonic Collective, we dive into one of the most iconic albums in Canadian music history — Gordon Lightfoot’s Sundown (1974). Known for its title track, which became Lightfoot’s only U.S. #1 single, Sundown is an album that perfectly balances folk roots with a smooth country-rock polish. At the height of the 1970s singer-songwriter era, Lightfoot delivered deeply personal songs about love, jealousy, and restlessness, cementing his place as one of the greatest storytellers in music. As always on The Sonic Collective, we step back in time to experience this album as it was meant to be heard, while also asking an important question: does Sundown still hold up today? We’ll share our insights on the history, cultural impact, and sound of the album, while reflecting on how these songs resonate with modern listeners. From the radio-dominating hit “Sundown” to the hauntingly beautiful “Carefree Highway,” this record gives us plenty to discuss. If you’re new to our show, The Sonic Collective is a podcast where music lovers revisit classic albums to see if they stand the test of time — and if they’re worth adding to your playlist today. Whether you’re a lifelong Lightfoot fan or just discovering his music, join us as we explore what makes Sundown such a compelling piece of music history.
