There are skillful tributes and heartfelt homages, and then there’s If It’s Alright With You: The Songs of Gene MacLellan, which finds Juno Award winner Catherine MacLellan covering songs by her legendary late father, with a magnificence only blood ties can summon. For two decades, Gene quietly commanded the ears of the world from his Prince Edward Island home, as artists including Anne Murray, Elvis Presley, and Loretta Lynn turned his compositions into worldwide chart-toppers and repertoire standards. Catherine MacLellan has long explored her father’s catalogue in tangential ways, while establishing herself as a peerless musician all her own. But fully embracing the musical heirloom that is her birthright wasn’t an imperative – until now.
