new Eva Cassidy "Somewhere"

the tracks were not released because(at the time) it was felt they were not m.o.r. fare, and were a bit out of the ordinary for the fans that were into her softer side. her r&b chops were spectacular, and these recordings really show off her versatility. the lp is coming too.

As I understand it there are two compilation albums, Songbird and Wonderful World, which would probably be best for someone who just wanted to sample.

I avoided these and a while ago bought Live at Blues Alley, Time After Time and Imagine.

Having enjoyed these three greatly--what a unique voice!, I figured I'd pick up Eva by Heart and American Tune at the same time as when Somewhere came out, which obviously it just has.

So is the consensus that Somewhere is only for the absolute completist, or would it still be worthwhile for an enthusiast?

it certainly won't disappoint. the title tune alone is among her best.

Got this cd, and would not say it is at the same standard as her others, but a few tracks make it well worth while!
On that basis, i would highly recommend it.
Unfortunately, my CD has a slight skip/imperfection (fraction of a second) at about 1min 30sec into the track "a bold young farmer", which i would say is a one of the standout track. Is this in the recording?
Anyone else notice this?

Replaced the CD at the store. Same thing on the new one. 1min 35 seconds into the song, there is a flaw.
