4 out of 5 stars Don't break the bank, but it's a nice mix off different CDs.......2007-03-19

This 5-song CD was a "Borders Exclusive" released in 2001. The cover art is reminiscent of her Stones in the Road CD.
The first song is unique to this CD. It is called "Superman" and is not a song I'd consider a must have. "Tonight love is not a traitor but a friend..." I guess you could call it a song for a lover but it's a bit too somber and heavy on violin for me to call it a love song. It could be that it will take time to grow on me, like some of her others from the Stones in the Road/Place in the World era.
I like her voice and have all her CDs except her newest and "The Essential MCC" and I feel the other 4 songs here capture her essence well and sound good together. They have more of a sweet folky sound than country or pop to me.
Track 2 is "The Moon and St. Christopher" which has always been one of my favorites off Shooting Straight in the Dark (which is in my top 4 of the 9 MCC CDs I have).
Track 3 is the title track from Come On Come On, probably her most "pop" and most popular CD, though this is not one of the album's hit singles.
Track 4 is "Where Time Stands Still" off Stones in the Road. It deserves being the track the CD is named for since it captures the tone of the others well.
Track 5 is the title track off A Place in the World. I never felt that CD was as strong as the two after it but this song fits in well with the others.
I wouldn't but this just for "Superman" but if you don't own the CD's the four others are on and you can find it for a reasonable price it might be worth adding to your collection.
