This CD from the Paradise Road Records label has almost the same cover as their previoiusly release "Don't Cry Daddy and other great songs", but now with a black background. I guess the inspiration by the art designer was gone. 

Although there are pretty good songs on this release, I don't understand why this label chose to put some songs twice on the CD: Let It Be Me, Polk Salad Annie and Teddy Bear/Don't Be Cruel.
