This CD features a remarkable line-up of artists paying tribute to the iconic work of an artist many consider to be the first true singer/songwriter performer of the rock n roll era. Among those contributing to the collection are Stevie Nicks, Jeff Lynne, Natalie Merchant, Lyle Lovett, Jackson Browne, Brian Wilson, Chris Isaak, Zooey Deschanel, and Ringo Starr. Produced by Peter Asher who, as half the duo of Peter & Gordon, covered Buddys True Love Ways which was a massive hit. In addition, Asher produced Linda Ronstadts smash renditions of Its So Easy and Thatll Be The Day, both of which served to further bolster the amazing durability of Hollys legacy. Buddy showed us how brilliant and unforgettable songs could be written using the simplest of chords, says Asher. He taught us the value of a lyric which came from the heart and the importance of making records the way you heard them in your head. His music has never ceased to play a major role in my life and work.
