Great album.

Sounds a bit like 'American Stars 'n Bars'.

    Thanks for the heads up. From what little I'd heard of it, I thought it might be more like the "Are you Passionate?" album, which was pretty bad. Maybe I'll get it now.

    By the way, is that a mugshot of that dude that hijacked a bank or whatever and then jumped out of an airliner on the west coast somewhere?

    Cool, I love Stars'n'Bars, very underrated album. Got Dreamin Man as a Christmas present. I like it a lot as I don't own Harvest Moon and a good few of the songs are new to me. I've heard they're quite similar to the album versions so maybe if you own HM it's might not be worth the few quid.

    it's alright. i've got all his stuff and i'd say it's somewhere in the middle. Not his best or his worst; thought living with war and greendale were much better.

    We all have different opinions when it comes to neil. I saw this as a big neil fan.......

    I hate this album. I listened to 42 albums (not including live or eps) that came out last year and i would rank it as the worst album i heard.

    I cringe when i think about how much i disliked this album.

    Again just my opinion.

    Yeah, I'd agree with this opinion. I've given it one, maybe 2 listens since I picked it up. Not one of my favorite albums that Neil recorded.
    "You're no help," he told the lime. This was unfair. It was only a lime; there was nothing special about it at all. It was doing the best it could.

    One of Neil's weaker albums of the past few years. The only song I like is Fork In The Road.
