Oh, well that was just delightful. My dad kept telling me to listen to this album. He also says that I will love Tapestry and Devil in the White City. Maybe I should start listening to him.
I think this guy rivals Cat Stevens for most uplifting music. The song "Sunny Skies" is just so cheerful without coming across as cheesy so it is truly a delight. We have all heard the song "Oh Susannah" but his version was both moving and original. You can also watch him perform it with Johnny Cash on YouTube.
This is exactly the kind of album I needed today. I have been kind of doubting my 1001 album journey but this reminded me why I am doing it.
RATING: 5/5
