If It s Emmylou, It s great or so close to great that there isn t a word for it - If you don t know Emmylou Harris at all, buy anything she s ever done. The worst that you ll get is really good. This album is lovely, if low-key and sad. There is a strain of American music - the only authentic strain aside from Afro-American - embodied in country, folk and some rock based on the former two that is heart-piercing, but absolutely lovely. And Emmylou Harris - who defies labels - does it best of all (though her version of Diamonds Are a Girl s Best Friend - elsewhere - rocks with a kind of tough cynicism that the Broadway showtune never had.) I ve seen her up close in a small concert and she is the very epitome of grace, modesty and beauty. I ve been playing this disk for months in my waiting room, and client after client has been struck and asked me about it and her (and Juanes too, but that s another story.)
She still shines - I love it. It s more relaxing than others, so if you want rock and roll this is not for you.
She Just Gets Better! - This really enjoyable collection of music has something for everyone. Emmylou sounds great and her backup harmonies are well suited.
Still one of the best - Emmylou is still one of the best. I listen to these songs over and over again. For a fan of Harris you will not be disappointed.
Emmy lou Harris All I intended to be - This record is so beautiful- excellent! She is unequaled-I am listening to this recording every day, many times. I intend to give some for Xmas gifts.
