- Too Much

I've got a great idea get all the famous people in the world to organize a charity to stop the world from spinning so that the sune will never set on third world countries. Who could we get Bono, Eddie Vedder, Al Gore, Arnold Swcharzenager, and Sting. Where is the imix for Appalachia,inner city New York, Compton, and so on. Oh wait they aren't in fashion at the moment. It took a hurricane to show the world what the poverty level in New Orleans was really like. So spare me the bs. Philantropy is just another name for looking good in the lime light.
- I love this album...

I bought this album to support a wonderful cause, FINCA, the internationally renowned micro-loan program which won the Nobel Peace prize a few years ago. I was delighted to find that this compilation is full of GREAT songs that I listen to all the time. A review I saw online sneered about the "singer-songwriter" musical sensibility: don't be fooled! This is a beautifully produced, heartfelt album full of listening pleasure. And it really does support a great cause.
- Love It

I originally only bought this album becasue the Shin were on it and I wanted to supported a worth-while cause. Once i started listening to it, I was blown away by how good all of the songs were. Buy this album, it's amazing, and support FINCA.
- A Wise Purchase, Period.

I wasn't aware this benefit CD existed until I Wiki-ed, "Devendra Banhart" [who is very talented, check out his albums!]
ANYWAY the article mentions this CD so I was curious to see what else was on it.
I recognized a good amount of artists on it and I wanted that Bjorn Yttling Mix of The Shins song, "Australia."
It's a steal for 17 tracks including the two bonus tracks, and definitely worth getting the whole album for.
Besides, it's for a good cause! I went for it.
- Great music, great cause.

I would have been excited about this album even if it cost the regular $9.99 and the money wasn't going to a great charity. This is an awesome mix of songs, and since the proceeds go to FINCA, it's a win-win situation for everyone involved.

Beirut, The Shins, and Devendra all on the same album?! It's like a dream come true. No doubt this will get me into numerous other bands as well, once I buy it...
- wow Natalie!
