Favorite Tribute Albums?


I'm a big fan of Tribute and Cover Albums. Some of my favorites include: Holly Cole's Temptation (Tom Waits covers); Poet - A Tribute To Townes Van Zandt; Till the Night Is Gone- A Tribute to Doc Pomus; Timeless - A Tribute To Hank Williams; Bob Marley A Tribute The Riddim Of A Legend and This One's for Him A Tribute to Guy Clark. I would enjoy hearing others recommendations.

I think all of mine have already been mentioned. Willie Nelson’s latest album is sort of a tribute album, in that all the songs on it were written by Rodney Crowell. If you haven’t heard Rodney’s The Houston Kid album, rectify that oversight! In my opinion, it is not only a perfect album, but also the best album of this century (so far).

 

I don't have J.T. yet, but it should be on my list.  Steve Earle's tribute album/CD  for his son, Justin.
