Background story:
Some time in the future, a brilliant scientist managed to clone these singer-songwriters. His idea was to have an all-acoustic guitar band, which would perform the six's greatest hits. However, it failed due to the fact that none of the clones wanted to perform the others' songs. They ended up releasing one single, which consisted of each guy performing one of his own songs, all at the same time. Surprisingly, it was a smash hit, and a follow-up was planned. However, between recording sessions, Dylan had found Jesus, Simon had been jailed for domestic abuse, McLean had taken to the bottle, Taylor had discovered Eastern religion, and Denver had left on a jet plane. Lightfoot was available, but insisted on including introspective commentary between each track. The project was scrapped.
