They make some interesting observations about the "tribute album" concept and our execution in particular

I thought it was ok, heard it on a site. Fearless was well done, but some songs were just awful. WYWH comes to mind.

I feel sorry for bands that covers songs though, if you can cover Jimi Hendrix for instance then what's the point in showing people, you're obviously a brilliant guitarist so join another band instead.

Anyway, it sounded ok.

Facsinating -- Sally Semrad's Wish You Were Here has, so far, garnered the most radio airplay of the 30 Fair Forgery tracks.
