Lovely Western music

A classic tribute album of Western music. A highly recommended pick.

What comes to mind when you hear the term “tribute album”? Generally, a tribute album focuses on a legendary artist or band—sometimes a lyricist or composer—with multiple artists performing covers of their classic songs.

In this article, I’ve chosen a timeless, highly recommended tribute album in Western music featuring contributions from various artists and bands.

Tribute albums aren’t often introduced in this way, so please enjoy this opportunity!
