from my library (cd)



Let's start with the bonus cd which is the last 7 tracks listed. Three remakes of previous tracks plus
a Canadian language track which I don't speak. It is actually the French translation of a previous love
track, Fields Of Progeny, but I didn't need that. So we've got four of those seven tracks that do
nothing but drag the score down. Could have been a love album if not for all the bonus. Of course I
don't have to play that one, which I probably won't in the future. The first cd holds up well with 4
love tracks. Had not heard of this Canadian band until this album. Picked it up after hearing it on the
deceased AOL album listening site. Leadman Tony Dekker has listed his influences as Gram Parsons and
Hank Williams. Neither of those come through here and Fleet Foxes or Bon Iver is what I hear, which
puts it inalternative for me. This is the bands fifth album and the first to see any chart action here,
and that was only on the Top Heatseekers chart. Apparently there was little heat generated. So for now
the Canadian homeland is the only place these guys are known and that's by the fringe few.
