Excellent
Absolutely one of the most remarkable voices in the world! This album is a bit softer than her earlier work but her sound is nonetheless excellent!.


Bought as gift, but ended up liking it myself.
I knew only of, a few of her songs and liked them. I bought this as a gift for a Joan Osborn fan. But have to say after hearing this album, I now have become a fan. What a remarkable voice and beautiful vocal interpretations of songs. She sings with such effortlessness and power. It is such a pleasure to listen to her on this album. I am a 59 year old Rock A Roller, who has found a new avenue of music, that is so enjoyable. My hat goes off to you Miss Osborn. You are a remarkable talent.


My favorite Joan
I have often just replayed the songs again and again. I just have to say that this album is a wonderful piece. She has really found the soul of some of these songs.


Equal Parts Emmylou And Patsy
Why in God's name none of these songs aren't on the air, I don't know. It sucks to be me, because I just now came across this CD at a country radio station I work at. I suppose the masses want the effervescent bubblegum pop of a Taylor Swift, all pitch-correct and pseudosexy on an album cover, than this collection of prime country. On second thought, I guess it sucks to be the masses.

On this disc, Joan has quite capably channeled Patsy Cline and Emmylou Harris and come up with a stunning take on what could be called 'classic country. ' Help from people like Alison Krauss, Dan Tyminsky of Union Station, and Vince Gill certainly don't hurt. The interesting thing is, listen to this album and try to tell which of the songs were written by Kris Kristofferson and Jerry Garcia and Rodney Crowell and which ones are the tunes that Joan wrote herself. You probably won't be able to do it.

Joan's voice has always been fantastic, and it's so refreshing to hear it put to yet another use on this CD. It's one of those discs that grabs you within the first ten seconds and won't let go until you've listened to the whole thing at least twice.

Sad thing is, with the current state of the music industry focusing less and less on actual talent, Joan is probably destined to be one of those "B-list" singers who are popular with quite a few people but never achieve huge mainstream success (again). In the event that winds up being true, then I guess it sucks to be all of us.
