Comment:

Admittedly, collecting covers is kinda dorky, and I think my avidity has something to do with alienation from the musical scene. Much here will be quickly recognizable to tribute disc devotees, though fans of Big Daddy will want to hunt down the brilliant Godfrey Daniel LP. My interest was a fresh take on the material and good sound flow (too often ignored by AoTM'ers). Watch out for the sequel.
