My Mistake

Review Score: (4/10)
This album is getting very mixed reviews, and I should have read them in more detail before buying the CD. However, it was my mistake and I can only hold myself to blame. I'm a big Maynard fan and felt that he could really nail down some cover songs that would far exceed the originals. However, the only song that even gets close is "Imagine", thus the 2 star rating.
Beyond that, for me, the album serves to reinforce how good the original songs and artists are (Depeche Mode, Led Zeppelin, etc.), and that I will do much more research before buying a cover album, even from a band/artist I really admire.
