• Track Listing

An arranger and key member of Linda Ronstadt’s band, Andrew Gold broke out as a solo artist with his 1975 self-titled LP, then saw Leo Sayer cover his song "Endless Flight" on the 1976 LP of the same name. Gold emerged as one of L.A.’s finest musicians and songwriters of the mid-’70s, and this set chronicles those breakthrough years in his career (a career which ended sadly when Andrew succumbed to cancer at age 59). Here you’ll find his LPs "Andrew Gold," "What’s Wrong with This Picture," "All This and Heaven Too" and "Whirlwind" plus outtakes, unreleased recordings, live performances and a DVD: promo videos ("Lonely Boy," "Go Back Home," "Thank You for Being a Friend," "Never Let Her Slip Away," "How Can This Be Love" and "Kiss This One Goodbye") and 1977–78 BBC Old Grey Whistle Test performances ("Heartaches in Heartaches," "That’s Why I Love You," "Hope You Feel Good," "One of Them Is Me," "Learning the Game" and more including an Andrew Gold interview). The rarities "Within a Word," "Feel It," two versions of "Gambler" and the original versions of "Genevieve" and "Lonely Boy" and live L.A./London performances of "Stay," "Endless Flight," "Hang My Pictures Straight" and "Hope You Feel Good" join all the hits and tracks from the four aforementioned LPs. A lavish tribute to Andrew Gold, a sorely missed master of his craft. Esoteric.
