"OK - spoiler alert. This may seem like a strange album for anyone to have as their #1 album of all time ~ except, in my case, this is my one & only album, recorded in the producer's loungeroom.

"Her forth album following a fine list of great records. This record contains outstanding interpretations of Pancho & Lefty and You Never Can Tell. The other tracks ain't shabby either. A solid collection of songs."  Reply
