Christina Becker: 'Blind Man'

Download at Other Music Digital. The CD may still be available from Riverman.

The Youngest Son by Jeff Moore & Friends is one of the ultimate grails of Canadian folk -- literally a four figure LP. The album is everything you want it to be as moody teen folk from the great white north. The vibe is so subdued, the fidelity so low, the sentiments so pure that the album almost can't really exist, and yet here it is, more relevant than ever 35 years on. The album actually features two different artists -- Jeff Moore and Christina Becker -- doing their own separate, but equally engaging things. Sadly, these seven tracks (and the coda, 'Inspiration') represent everything these two did on tape. But now sit back and enjoy the first authorized, fully restored edition of this folk classic, and find out why serious collectors drop serious money on original copies.
