Can't comment on the vinyl, but the cd I think is very well recorded.I can't see personally how for instance the tracks 'Sam Hall' or 'Tear Stained Letter' could be improved upon. He (IMHO) has chosen a few tracks unsuitable for his gruff voice namely 'Bridge over Troubled water', and 'First Time Ever I Saw Your Face', not too keen on 'Personal Jesus' either. Minor gripes on choice of songs, not on the quality of cd.
