Shades of folk rock paint a North American landscape
This album features the title track "Sundown," a number one hit on the US singles chart, becoming the biggest hit of his career.
Based on acoustic guitar, the album fuses elements of country music (such as pedal steel guitar) with a folk-rock band ensemble. Lightfoot's baritone voice, simple yet deeply moving, conveys his narrative lyrics. The unsettling tension of the title track and the introspective side of other songs showcase the rich depth of his songwriting.
