Yet another ingenious move by Utah Phillips. Jody and Kate do a beautiful job with Utah's songs--they are lovely, heartrending versions of some of his best. My favorite find on the album is Miner's Lullaby, which Kate and Jody put the melody to. The CD jacket is complete with song notes and stories to boot. Worth every penny and more, buy now!!
