This album has THE classic version of "Abraham, Martin & John" and for that reason alone this is worth owning but it's not the only reason. Dion's surprisingly soft and profound version of Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze" is excellent. He also covers songs from writers like Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, and Fred Neil (among others) and does each in a unique and revealing way. This is one of the Great forgotten (nearly) albums that deserves to be heard again.
