In my opinion, there's hardly a better songwriter than Gene Clark. Using probably standard chords, he conjures up melodies that, at least for me, reach deep down and create a feeling of well-being that, as I said, I rarely experience otherwise. With the Dillard & Clark debut album, the White Light solo debut, and the No Other masterpiece, he's recorded three Desert Island records at once.
With this 20-song compilation, I easily prove that you can also find wonderful versions of these songs by other artists. Included are Glitterhouse heroes Midnight Choir, Walkabouts, Go To Blazes, and Neal Casal. Also included are Dave Gahan & Soulsavers, This Mortal Coil, Pure Prairie League, and many others...
