If you liked John Hartford's music and style, this is the CD for you! A wonderful tribute to John by members of his band (Chris Sharp, Mike Compton...) who stayed true to John's style! This is truly a gem! Your collection will NOT be complete without it!

A terrific recollection of Johns work from an authentic group of connected musicians. You can feel his presence on all the songs. Singable songs that shouldn't be forgotten.
