Tap-Dancing is STILL great Jimmie!

"This is actually Jimmie's second release while he was alive. One can sense his determination for some type of commercial sucess while remaining true to his new found fans and himself. The album as a whole comes out feeling a little bit unfocused. He simply tries too many things for one release. In the minds of the record execs, this one should push his career further, but in many ways it was an initial set back until "Dragon is Dancing" came out. This album DOES contain several of Jimmie's best. Streets Of The Harbor, Keeper Of The Canyon, Moon On The Water all have Jimmie's true magic. Buy it for these three tunes and for history. Great spin!"
Not his best, in my opinion, but a good CD nonetheless

"Buy it to round out your collection, for sure. This being Jimmie's third CD, I think he might well have been working too hard and too fast.
Still, "Original Tap Dancing Kid" is fun. "Shirt full of Apples" is probably the best song in the collection. Even the worst are worthy of a listen."
