it's actually a really great cd (maybe bar one track that doesn't fit with the mellow flow of the rest). some great artists, with some nice interpretations. of course the prince version is the same as on "one night alone"

i'm a big joni fan, i have all her albums, so these words are from a long time fans perspective

if you don't know joni too well, checkout her "hits" and "misses" compilations, as well as "travelogue"
