Ah, at last. I'm with Gord on this one. and even beyond....
on a previous thread, I stated that I hadn't even gotten all the way through the Beautiful tribute album. I spent all my time saying, "tempo, people tempo" like Robin Williams in The Fisher King.
The only covers I like at all on it are Ribbon Of Darkness (surprising since it's molasses in wintertime slow, but I can dig it. dude is feeling it, depresses the hell outta me)and Bend In The Water works ok for me.
I really just prefer to hear Lightfoot do Lightfoot.
For the sake of diplomacy, I've decided not to share my opinion of Ron Sexsmith's (this cannot be this man's real name, can it??)Drifters. eek.
