Шаблон:Infobox album

Away Is Mine is the seventh solo studio album by Gord Downie. It was released posthumously on October 16, 2020,[1] and recorded over four days in July 2017, three months before he died.[2] It is a double album, with one disc containing electric versions of the songs, and the other acoustic.[3]

The album was produced by Nyles Spencer.[4] It sold well in Canada, earning a #3 Billboard Canada chart debut with the #1 spot on the Top Albums, Vinyl, and Digital Albums charts.[5]

Regarding the release, The Spill Magazine's John Graham laments, "Away Is Mine serves as a reminder that Downie, our dear friend gone far too soon, gave everything he could musically, before the inevitability of his death."[6]

"There really wasn’t a plan to make a record," Downie’s co-writer Josh Finlayson said. "The whole thing was that I knew this was a great way to spend time with Gord, listening to music, talking about music, talking about things that we’d always talked about. And this just evolved pretty organically."[7]

“This won’t be his last release, but these are the final ten songs Gord sang before he passed away. The last time he ever sang into a mic," Finlayson and brother Patrick Downie wrote in a joint statement. “That’s pretty special to us."[8]
