Query: I wanted to like it ..............................

I liked Judy Collins for years before I got around to buying this album. And now I know why I waited years. She is a good singer when she is concentrating, but only ordinary when she's not. I am still in awe of what she achieved on the first verse of "Amazing Grace", but not nearly as happy with the other verses, to the point where I would rather find a better version.Just like I did with my other favorite recording of hers - "Someday Soon". The version by Suzy Bogguss is vastly superior. And I think Joni Mitchell's version of "Both Sides Now" is wearing much better than Judy's. And I would rather hear Leonard Cohen singing "Suzanne". Judy did these artists an immense favor by popularizing their music, but I don't think she is standing the test of time. Maybe some of today's great voices could be convinced to do a "Songs Of Judy Collins" album and give a brighter shine to some of her better originals.
