Artist: Alison Krauss - (Audio CD) - 2007 ... more
The other night I watched Alison Krauss on Austin City Limits (on the world's best TV set -- the "Sharp Aquos LC42D62U 42" 1080p LCD HDTV," please see my review for that one.) And I fell in love, all over again with a singer who could one day... read full review | report as inappropriate
I had such high hopes for this album before it was showed up. Her previous releases with Union Station were artistic wonders - brilliant musicianship and thoughtful lyrics that required repeated listening to fully understand the complex... read full review | report as inappropriate
This Girl sings like no one else, but this CD could use a little jacking up. If it's mood music you want this may do it but don't look for any peppy stuff in this CD. Had I heard what was on it I would have passed it up. read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Taylor Swift - (Audio CD) - 2006 ... more
I first met Taylor at CMA Music Fest in June and I was instantly impressed by how sweet and down to earth she was. Soon after, I heard "Tim McGraw" on the radio for the first time and was hooked. I ran out right after work yesterday to pick up... read full review | report as inappropriate
It's puzzling to really find what anyone see's in this girl. The theme of her material has very little range, her voice included. Vocally Swift is extremely weak, aided largely on her cd by 'studio tweaking' to enhance those limited vocals.... read full review | report as inappropriate
I bought this CD because of the song Tim McGraw. There really isn't anything special about it, or unique about any of the songs. It could just be one monotonous track. I don't recommend buying. read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Carrie Underwood - (Audio CD) - 2005 ... more
First single, "Jesus..." is awesome. Carrie has a magnificient voice, tremendous talent, is smart, personable and remarkably unassuming, given her accomplishment (saw her on Larry King last night... only Carrie can make me suffer through that... read full review | report as inappropriate
This album is like Carrie - sweet, innocent and completely with substance. If you like fluffy, light country-pop, you'll love this, but if you're looking for the future of country music, I'd say look elsewhere. read full review | report as inappropriate
I was a Bo fan and thought Carrie is just a decent talent, but Some Hearts is better than I thought it would be. This IS middle of the road pop/country, but the lyrics are not fluffy or pro-tooled, and the songs allow Carrie to show her... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Brad Paisley - (Audio CD) - 2007 ... more
Like everything else from Brad Paisley, 5th GEAR delivers and in true country style. With so many country artists trying to work things from every angle possible, it's nice to see a country singer who is content to stay firmly within his genre.... read full review | report as inappropriate
This whole cd is bland compared to the previous releases. There just aren't as many great guitar licks and the mixing doesn't sound as good to me. On top of that, they lyrics are clever but too racy for my younger children. read full review | report as inappropriate
So far I really only like 3-4 songs on this CD. I am hoping it will grow on me. read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Lucinda Williams - (Audio CD) - 2007 ... more
There is a campaign underway for the reviewer following me- neggies for me poszzies for this person- just watch. Reported to Amazon. Lucinda Williams says of her new CD'West'-" I get tired of people looking at my songs and feeling... read full review | report as inappropriate
I love Lucinda Williams as a songwriter. I love the title track "West". However this CD sounds like she wrote words and added very basic (and unimaginative) chord progressions, and minimal melodies just to get the words out no matter how clumsey... read full review | report as inappropriate
One cannot argue that Lucinda is a brilliant poet who bares her soul and shares her angst, freely. In this, she gets better and better. What long-time fans know, however, is that she can also be a brilliant musician, a studio perfectionist who can... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Johnny Cash - (Audio CD) - 2002 ... more
This is a very good primer for those just finding out about Johnny Cash. To look at him simply as a country singer is a grave misunderstanding of what he means to music. Die-hard fans will probably already have most of these songs, but it does... read full review | report as inappropriate
Overall, this would have been a pretty good Johnny Cash compilation. Unfortunately, Sony chose to censor a line from "Boy Named Sue" with a loud bleep. It ruins the song, and in my opinion taints the entire release. I bought this CD... read full review | report as inappropriate
great cd and no one can replace johnny , but lets focus on the living legends! check out the grammy winning "Van lear rose" by the great loretta lynn or "hits I missed and one I didnt" from george jones or check out the new "those were the days"... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris - (Audio CD) - 2006 ... more
I've herd 3 great cd's in the past month...the new cd from CHICAGO...the new one from TOTO..and now "All the Roadrunning"....the other 2 are slick commercial masterpieces...but this new cd from Mark and Emmylou is nothing short of a pure... read full review | report as inappropriate
I'm afraid this struck me as too much of the same old country that we hear from others. I did not find Harris' voice carrying that extra edge that pulls me into the pathos of her songs with the echoey sounds here. It seems they both left behind... read full review | report as inappropriate
Not up to the best of either Emmylou or Mark. I love both of the musicians and song writers but this CD seemed just a marketing ploy. read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Johnny Cash - (Audio CD) - 1999 ... more
This is Johhny's historic 1968 live show restored to its original order and UNCENSORED. It also contains an impressive cd booklet with many photographs taken throughout the day of the performance. This cd also contains unpublished material as... read full review | report as inappropriate
Honestly, I don't find much here to like. With a few exceptions (e.g. Jackson)the songs all sound pretty much the same and it's tough to make it through the whole album as a result. This leaves the album to stand on its lyrics which paint a... read full review | report as inappropriate
The highlights of this LP--"Folsom Prison Blues" and "Jackson," in particular--are so great that they nearly make up for they corny ballads in between. Nearly.
A few more performances by June Carter, who growls like a bear on "Jackson," and a... read full review | report as inappropriate
Artist: Lyle Lovett - (Audio CD) - 2007 ... more
The songs on this disc are diverse in theme and sound. My favorite track is "Tickle Toe" It is very upbeat. I like the trumpet playing by Gary Grant on this first cut very much. "Don't Cry A Tear" is a beautiful song. The acoustic guitar... read full review | report as inappropriate
Lyle Lovett is gifted songwiter with a literacy and sense of humor seldom found among today's music headliners. That said he also at times one of the most frustrating. This most recent effort is an example of that. Why do you assemble a band of... read full review | report as inappropriate
Why does he call this call CD "His Large Band" when only one song ( Tickle Toe ) has this band on it. The rest of this CD is mellow acoustic type of ballads which is ok if this is what you're looking for. I don't get where he was... read full review | report as inappropriate
