Sounds like John is now older and more silent - nevertheless an interesting album.
I was looking forward to hearing John Farnham's interpretation of some Classic Australian Songs. I guess he got the idea from the success of Rod Stewart's series of albums "The Great American Songbook". And it is an excellent idea, after all there are some really great tracks written and performed by Australian artists. Unfortunately, for me anyway, I found John's renditions slow, bland and similar. Which is a shame and I was really dissapointed. On the bright side it made me realise how good the original songs by the original artists are by comparison. I listened to the CD once and I doubt I would again so I guess I will sell it. That's why I like ebay so much :-) John Farnham is a great singer with a great voice and some of his work is outstanding. Maybe he needs to concentrate on material that better suits his unique talents.
