Endless Highway: The Music of The Band

A new (the first?) tribute album to The Band. I’ve yet to buy the physical CD (I'm not sure it’s available as of this writing) but have downloaded the songs. Wow. This is a great compilation. And what makes it truly fabulous is how it reminds how great the original songs are. No one sings like Rick Danko, Richard Manuel, and Levon Helm but these covers are very, very good. Some of the best songwriting in the school of rock. All hail The Band.

Oh, and while I'm at it, check out the latest Hal Willner offering, Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs, & Chanteys! Arrgghhh!
