Bruce Cockburn: Speechless
Hurray for the iTunes Music Store. No more will labels get away with their favourite compilation trick of adding two or three new tracks to a long list of songs I already own. Instead of forking out for the full CD I'll just grab the music I don't have at 79 pence a pop.
So it is with Bruce Cockburn's new instrumental compilation, Speechless. Buying it this way trims the 70-mintes down to just twenty.
The new tracks are sublime but don't quite match the drive of Train in the Rain or the dexterity of Sunrise on the Mississippi. So I find myself plundering previous CDs to reconstruct the rest of the compilation. Perhaps forking out for the whole thing wouldn't have been so bad.
