New renditions of their classics old and new, with Chris Brashear contributing
on fiddle and mandolin. Excellent arrangements and vocals throughout.
*= favorite cuts
1 – (2:31) On and On* Up-tempo, catchy.
2 – (3:00) Pine County Slow-to-mid, pretty vocals.
3 – (2:40) My Sweet Love Ain’t Around* Mid-tempo, Linda sings lead.
4 – (4:17) This Is The Real Thing* Slow tempo, pedal steel in the background.
5 – (4:30) Urge For Going* Slow, lovely cover of Joni Mitchell song.
6 – (3:52) Dixie Highway Sign Mid-tempo, decent.
7 – (4:14) Green Summertime Mid-tempo, pretty Linda vocals.
8 – (3:21) The Old Familiar House on Christmas Day* Title says it all.
9 – (4:01) Daughter of MacLeod* Mid-tempo ballad, nostalgic & sad.
10 – (3:50) Adam Rude* Mid-tempo protest song.
11 – (3:15) Other Side of Town* Nice song of longing & love.
12 – (4:17) Boots of Spanish Leather Up-tempo, just so-so.
13 – (3:18) Seventeen Years Old Pretty song of young love, slow tempo.
