EXCELLENT STEVE FORBERT COLLECTION Sep 16, 2008 I differ from the 2 star reviewer because I do place Steve Forberts work
'Right Up There' with John Prine, Greg Brown, Bob Dylan and lets not forget Tom Paxton. Each are great story tellers whose musical offerings reflect their own unique backgrounds, style and presentation, sharing with us what they personally know and live.
As artists their sound differs greatly one from another, but their common ground is that All Of Their Lyrics Can Really Take You Places - the way reading a good book can.
I love that kind of musical entertainment.
This EXCELLENT STEVE FORBERT COLLECTION is one of my favorites.

What Kinda Guy: The Best of Dan Fogelberg Apr 16, 2008 This is not Dan Fogelberg! It is The Best of Steve Forbert: What Kinda Guy. Amazon has advertised two different CD's as being music from Dan Fogelberg and they are not. I wish someone could explain why! If you want Dan Fogelberg you are not going to keep a CD from a guy with the name Steve Forbert. I am sending this CD back too! Isn't this a waste of money for postage? The order form enclosed with the CD clearly states What Kinda Guy: The Best of Dan Fogelberg. What's up with this Amazon??? This is a no star purchase please disregard the one star they make you give.

He's got a following Mar 08, 2008 I can appreciate a good singer-songwriter recognized as a musicians musician and I commend Steve Forbert for hanging in there for his fans but I for one am not one of them (with the exception of 2 songs). His lyrics tend to bore me. He's been compared to Dylan (NOT!) and described as a great storyteller. But he doesn't compare to such singer-songwriters as say; John Prine or Bruce Springsteen, just to name a few.
The song that I give him the most credit for is "Song for Katrina." It's a beautiful ballad. "Romeo's tune" is kind of commercial but pretty good. The rest? Sorry. I find it uninteresting and forgettable.
Relaxing, Mellow and Fun all at once! Oct 15, 2007 This is a great CD. A friend put it best when she described Steve's music as "comforting". We saw him at a concert in Atlanta a few weeks ago. Great concert. Very intimate, and he is a tireless performer.
The whole group loved his music. Buy this CD and you won't dissapointed.
