Half a century's worth of music reviews, interviews, and commentary
Rock Hall of Fame inductee Dion returns to the blues. Also, new Americana, bluegrass, and country CDs.
This album—the first by Dion to be conceived and sequenced for LP release—would have been one of the best folk/rock entries of the mid 1960s, thanks to strong, highly accessible material, ear-candy backup harmonies, and Dion’s peerless vocals. But it stayed in the can for half a century.
