I was getting bored with my current CD's that I brought with me on this trip and was desperate. I really set out to but the new Johnny Cash "Unearthed" 5 disc box set but it was $15 more than I have seen it elsewhere.

Then I saw the tribute CD and said what the heck. I probably won't like it but that wouldn't be the first CD I bought and only played once. I figured that it had to be better then that stupid Beatles CD I bought. I wish I had that Beatles CD when I was in the 4th grade because I could have related to their music back then.

I should have bought it sooner! I really love this disc. I especially like "Summer Side Of Life", "Drifters" and "The Way I Feel". I just bought it this evening so I haven't even listened to all the songs all the way through yet.

If anybody doesn't have this yet, it is well worth it and I am sure it will get much play time in my player. Take it from someone who usually doesn't like to hear anybody sing Lightfoot's songs but him. These are very good covers and I can see why Lightfoot was proud of it.
