This is a great record. Each of the musicians does justice to Vic’s music while at the same time expressing their own style. Even though he’s not well-known, Vic Chesnutt is highly respected in the music world, which is why musicians like R.E.M., Madonna, and Live wanted to cover his songs. Kristin Hersh does an absolutely beautiful version of “Panic Pure” on this record- as good as Vic’s, which makes me suspect that she’s actually his female counterpart. R.E.M. said it all in their comment, “Vic is cherry pie.” If you want to get a Vic album after hearing this, I recommend “Drunk” or “West of Rome.”
I lost this cd recently, and I need to replace it. Quickly. It is one the only times that I have found the cover songs are nearly as good as Vic Chesnutt’s own versions. They are artistic entities in their own right. The muscicians on this album do not simply reproduce these songs, they re-create them. And it is a testament to the incredible song writing of Chesnutt.
