The highlight of this CD may be Lee's 12-string guitar arrangement of Wayfaring Stranger. Inspired by a performance by Odetta at the 1984 Summerfolk Festival. She sang just this one song, for her entire half hour set.
This CD also included a number of Great Lakes songs in the mix, along with four instrumentals and the blues and ragtime guitar songs that have been Lee's musical roots.
