Van The Man is a tremendous songwriter, and hearing his songs done by others confirms this.

As far as the previous review, while Van is most definitely The Man, it is just his songs on this CD, sung by others. There is a wide variety of quality here, from Goldie Hawn slaughtering "I Wanna Roo You" to Billy Connolly's great live version of "Irish Heartbeat" accompainied by bagpipes.

Cleaning Windows (Barrence Whitfield & Tom Russell)
Jackie Wilson Said (Dexy's Midnight Runners)

I Shall Sing (Art Garfunkel)
Madam George (Energy Orchard)
Angeliou (Deacon Blue)
I Wanna Roo You (Goldie Hawn)
Have I Told You Lately (Emilio)
Brown Eyed Girl (Steel Pulse)
Tupelo Honey (Dusty Springfield)
Irish Heartbeat (Billy Connolly)
Moon Dance (Bobby McFerrin)
My Lonely Sad Eyes (Maria McKee)
Sweet Thing (The Waterboys)
Mercy, Mercy, Mercy / Vanlose Stairway (Georgie Fame)
Gloria (Live) (Eddie & The Hot Rods)

[If you are interested in this CD (or already have it), also try to get your hands on "No Prima Donna", which is another Van tribute album. Unfortunately, it is out of print, which means you have to go to ebay or half.com or duffelbag.com.]
