Customer Reviews
Don't buy on principle
This CD was put out without the blessing of the band. In fact, they would prefer you to download their tunes off the Internet instead buying it. And besides, so many of their albums are so good I can't imagine being able to pick a handfull of "best" songs. CJ fans, for sure, would not be interested in this CD. Neophytes would do well to explore in my order of preference Black-Eyed Man, Miles from our Home, Open, the Trinity Sessions, etc. Really can't miss with this fine group of musicians who deserve and merit the respect of their devoted fans, me among them.
It's alright... I suppose
Even though I have all these songs on other CDs of theirs, I decided to buy it just to have in my collection. However, I find this 'Best of' disappointing because there are very few songs here I consider the 'Best of' Cowboy Junkies. If you really want to hear the 'Best of ' this group, go buy "Lay it Down", "Black-Eyed Man", and "Trinity Sessions". To me, that is the best of the Cowboy Junkies!!
SUPPORT CJ'S: DO NOT BUY THIS CD
Go to cowboyjunkies site. They have asked their fans NOT to buy this album in which they were not involved in any aspect of its making and are highly insulted by these producers making their "best of" behind their back. They would rather have you download mp3's and burn your own cd. At least that's what Margo said at the concert where I saw them live this summer. BMG has pulled out to honor their request, but RCA has not.
