"Chapter One - Songs Inspired by Literature is not only a wonderful collection of established artists and unknown artists, it is also a CD that raises awareness and funds for the adult literacy epidemic in the United States. The five celebrity artists serve as a nice collection of fine songwriters. Aimee Mann contributed her song "Ghost World" which was inspired by Dan Clowes graphic novel of the same name. Grace Slick contributed her classic "Rejoyce", Suzanne Vega contributed "Calypso", Ray Manzrek (from the Doors for those who can't quite place his name) contributed "He Can't Come Today", and the haunting song from Bruce Springsteen "The Ghost of Tom Joad". This CD is a great addition to any CD collection. And, as I have discovered, it's good for car trips..."
