I was impress who was on the album so I copy/paste the credits. It has a few of my favorite Country artists like Emmylou Harris, Iris DeMent, Chet Atkins and American Primitive guitar player Leo Kottke. There is a good songs selection. I was familiar with a few. They were written by Kate Wolf (I love Kate), Gordon Lightfoot, Bob Dylan et al. Initially I didn't like the weak keyboards, but seeing people I love in Country I think that alone will push this from a "meh" (for being a TH pick) all the way up to a "Loved It."
