4 out of 5 stars Some good songs, You Won't Be Disappointed.......2004-05-10

"Child of Mine" is the best song on this CD. I played the song for my son's baptism in 1995. The song says it all.
A lot of other good tunes on this one as well. The only minor criticism is that there is too much orchestration on some of the songs. Staines is strongest when it is just he and his guitar. If you have a chance to see Bill, live, don't pass up the chance. Also check out his new book about life on the road!

5 out of 5 stars An essential for Bill Staines lovers. New songs from 'Old'.......1998-11-12

Except for 'River' (Band 6), these are all new songs for Bill Statines. For those of us who have heard Bill for many years, the new songs show that he still is one of the finest folk masters in the game. The second cut (Child of Mine) is especially beautiful... A must!! He shows that he still has a wonderful voice and ability to tell beautiful stories. A Staines classic, with an older voice.
