Thanks a lot for posting this -- one of my favorite albums of all time, almost missed the window if it weren't for you.

No problem. I thought that this version was 'interesting'. Nice to hear a different interpretation, but i wasn't particularly enamored by many of the singers; The Artilleryman, The Parson and Beth all seemed to over act to the point of being cringe worthy. Perhaps it was directed that way, but after hearing the original so many times it just didn't really work for me.
