I was at my Uncle's house, and he had this on and heard the melody to "Warmth of the Sun", he let me borrow it and it's decent. Although it would have been awesome if Brian did the jazz arrangements, I'd still love to see him do some jazz arrangements. Highlights: I enjoyed the Clarks Burroughs Group's versions the best. Especially their "Cabinessence" and "Surf's Up" Don Grusin's piano Surfer Girl is one of my favorites, I wish it was longer.The Elements' Till I Die is great, and the instrumental "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" is my favorite version of that song I believe.

Although good, it could have been so much better. I give it a 3.

Some of this is great - I would love to have heard the Clark Burroughs Group do more than just snippets of songs - but it some of it is close to cheesy listening, especially the title track which is truly massacred!

I don't have much interest in most of it, but the Clark Burroughs stuff is AMAZING. I especially adore their version of Can't Wait Too Long, and I wish they'd showed up more.

It’s going to be the greatest tribute album ever made.
