A Must Purchase for Joe South Fans

"With a bit of trepidation one buys a tribute album because generally the cover performances pale to the originals. With that said, most of the artists on this disc turn in fine readings of these classic Joe South songs.However, the Otis Clay version of "Walk A Mile In My Soes" is something else: he not only beats Elvis Presley's version but also tops Joe's. It is that incredible!. Also, I give high praise to the performances of "Down In The Boondocks" "Hush" and "The Greatest Love" . The sound quality of this compact disc is stellar and there is some nice linear notes.However, they fail to mention anything about what Joe South is currently up to (just a nit pick). Thanks to the artists and the producers for putting this wonderful project out!"
