I ordered my copy thru this website and it shipped pretty quickly.All I'm gonna say about the performances is that it's a mixed bag .Some do the songs justice and some (surprisingly)
do not. The most exciting is the group OZOMATLI..their take on "Mr Soul" is unlike any you have ever seen and WILCO's "Broken Arrow"
is breathtaking. It all boils down to honoring a musical giant and that is good enough for me.
