I've been a LC fan for well over thirty years. The first LC song I ever heard was sometime in the very early 1970's.It was One Of Us Cannot Be Wrong.The next I went out and bought Songs For.I've heard Dear Heather at least a dozen times over the last week and find it to be a bit of a dissapointment. LC voice on a few songs seems to have receded so far into the background that it's hard to even hear him. On several other songs the same verses are repeated over and over again.I can't find a single song on DH that even comes close to anything on TNS.Maybe it will grow on me as times passes.

Hi Jerry and Welcome

Your review is honest and respectful, and despite your disappointment, remains 'open.' I can't comment specifically on anything, yet; however, "Dear Heather" is getting a full range of reviews, from professional reviewers, as well as lay people. It'll be interesting to watch what our membership here thinks. Thanks for your own input. Hope you stick around. I love "One of Us Cannot Be Wrong."
