Subject: Songs Inspired by Literature

I recently heard a story on NPR about the "Songs Inspired By Literature Project- Chapter One". - It's a benefit CD for literacy that features songs inspired by books, poems. Well, I bought it at the SIBLProject website (.org) and love it. Good songwriters are on-board like Bruce Springsteen (re:Grapes of Wrath), Suzanne Vega (re:Calypso).... Plus they have all the songs from the winners of the contest they run. Proceeds of their sales go to adult literacy programs. What a great idea for a great cause! It inspired me to read Angela's Ashes after I cried listening to "The 7th Step".
