Editorial Review:
This album wasn't Lightfoot's breakthrough recording, but it was both a demonstration of the rocking electric turn most folkies would make after Dylan's revolution, and a commercially successful marriage of soulful, R&B sensibility with folk narratives. The title cut is probably engrained in the memory of anyone with an A.M. radio in the '70s, but 20 years later, it sounds suggestive, even bluesy. "Carefree Highway" perhaps excessively romanticizes the road, but less familiar tracks like "Watchman's Gone" and "Too Late for Prayin'" are convincing statements of Lightfoot's lyrical endurance. --Roy Francis Kasten
Sundown Reviews:
Thank you, Gordon, for all these years. 
2009-10-12 - This stands the test of time.
I've listened to it every fall for over 20 years.
No other album can take me to a different world like Sundown.
I own a lot of music, but this is the only one where I want to listen to every song, every year.
I just wish I could thank Lightfoot for what this album has meant to me.
The very best
2009-10-04 - To me this is the best album Gordon ever turned out. Of course my ranting here is strictly of a personal nature. this record came at e very tumultuous time for me.
It seemed as though more than a few of the songs came true. Seven Island suite seemed to be the very standout song. Anyone Home, the Watchmans Gone and Carefree Highway are to true to be true, in my life.
Anyway there it is for better or worse...........Listen to the songs and you will have a picture, in a way, of one mans life. However anonymous it may be. W.A. Looker
OKC, OK
cd
2009-09-14 - Excellent seller. I received my item very quickly. I would definitely buy from this person again.
A brilliant sunset accompanies Sundown
2009-05-08 - Easily one of the most important CD's from the 1970's, any serious music collection is incomplete if this CD is excluded. Simply stated, this CD is an amazing masterpiece from an amazing singer-songwriter.
Quick shipment
2009-03-08 - This was shipped and arrived shortly after my order was placed. I was very happy with the quality of the cd, the careful packaging and the speed of delivery
