Greg Brown kind of takes care of you when you put on one of his records. You know he's going to get it right and make you feel the way you want to feel: contented. And so it is with this one, a collection (an odd collection in many ways) of mostly old tunes. The one I love most is 'Foggy Foggy Dew' which is a perfect, rather sad, but lilting folk song, beautifully arranged. Like all the tracks on the album, the sound quality is, as we've come to expect from Greg Brown, to audiophile standards. If you've got a decent hi fi, it's like having him right there in the room with you. Every song on this album is carefully, but simply crafted, and I suspect it's something I'll want to listen to for many years yet.

5.0 out of 5 stars I grew up with Greg's music., June 22, 2004

I'm an Iowan, and I'm biased. I also have seen and heard Greg so many times I have forgotten, but am always real pleased when I hear how he is admired by his peers instead of just his many fans.
He's a melancholy guy with just enough smart ass to keep me
always interested. His music makes the passing of every year just that much easier. Listen to a sample, don't miss this.

This isn't a typical folk or country CD. In fact i don't like either genre but this CD is great. The more you listen the more you love it. I listen to it constently and haven't tired of it yet. The way that Greg Brown sings along with his lyrics make this cd fun to listen to.
