Notes
1993 tribute album featuring alternative and indie musicians covering the music of Victoria Williams after she was diagnosed as having multiple sclerosis. The intention was to raise money to help with her health care costs and to start a fund (the Sweet Relief Fund) to assist other professional musicians with similar future needs.

Reviews
- One of my favorite RSD releases. So many good songs. I'm not even really a fan of Victoria Williams, or of many of the bands here, but I've always loved these performances. They did a great job of matching the performers to the song.
No complaints. Sounds like the artists are right in front of you. Great songs too.
Very pleased with this 2022 RSD reissue after a long delay. The side D etching is beautiful, and the sound on both LPs is superb. Flat, dynamic. Great sounding reissue, and well worth the wait.- My question is why now and why a U.s. pressing ? I dove deep to get an EU pressed copy so they did get pressed. So what happened to the rest of the EU pressed vinyl from 2020 and we’re they released this RSD 2022 in the EU.. this is mystic to me. Anyone on this ..?!!!
- Only problem here is nobody bothered to make a new page with all the new info such as it’s pressed in the usa this time not to mention 2022 RSD.
It seems that a few slipped out on RSD 2020, but not many.
This is due to get a full RSD release on June 18, 2022
