    Comeback of the year.

    As wonderful as it is unexpected, Dirt Farmer is a strong candidate for comeback of the year.

    Whether reworking Steve Earle's 'The Mountain' or the traditional heart-tugger 'The Blind Child,' it represents a small yet very real personal triumph. [Dec 2007, p.121]
