5 out of 5 stars The Very Best of Tom Paxton.......2006-11-05

I'm replacing albums and tapes with CD's, so I was familiar with the content. I loved it and knew I would. One problem, the enclosed lyric sheet was for another album! I now have the lyrics for "Something Going On" "It Ain't easy" "Second Nature" etc.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2004-05-12

I got a feeling for Tom Paxton's music through this CD which I bought in Minneapolis in the early 1990's. Outward Bound is a great tune, and many others.

I would love to see this guy in concert.

3 out of 5 stars Get Some originals.......2000-06-10

Tom Paxton is undeniably one of the great songwriter's of the style. As this album is an exploration of Tom's output over the years it cannot be considered as anything else. It would be hard for me to give it anything but 3 stars. That said, if you are unfamiliar with Mr. Paxton's oeuvre, by all means pick up this CD. It is a textbook sampling of all the things Tom is in song. Then, do yourself a big favor. Go and find the original albums/CDs from which these songs have been culled. Unfortunately, many will be unavailable. But, there you will find the 5 stars!

5 out of 5 stars Outstanding work by a great artist..........1998-11-03

This cd is loaded with some of Tom Paxton's finest work... it is a must have for anyone who loves Tom's songs and warmth. A must have for a complete CD collection of Folk music that stretchs from the early '60 to current times....

5 out of 5 stars Great.......1998-06-11
