Editorial Product Review:Album Description:With its spare, acoustic-based instrumentation, this 1979 Grammy winner is one of Emmylou's most traditional efforts. Among its down-home offerings is the #1 country single 'Beneath Still Waters.' Includes new liner notes and two previously unreleased bonus tracks. :Emmylou Harris focuses more intently on her country ancestry with this 1979 record, tackling songs made famous by Hank Williams, Loretta Lynn, and the Louvin Brothers. However, the most rewarding cuts are the lesser-known gems: Willie Nelson's rollicking 'Sister's Coming Home' (with Tanya Tucker), Dallas Frazier's aching ballad 'Beneath Still Waters' (which hit ...

Editorial Product Review: :DeMent's debut album, 'Infamous Angel,' appeared out of nowhere in 1992 on the small Philo label with a ringing endorsement from John Prine on the cover. It made a big enough splash to be picked up by Warner Bros., and now DeMent has beaten the infamous sophomore jinx with an even better album, 'My Life,' produced in Nashville by Jim Rooney with musical help from Jack Clement, Stuart Duncan and Robin & Linda Williams. The collection includes songs by Mother Maybelle Carter and Lefty Frizzell plus eight DeMent originals just as powerful ...

Editorial Product Review: essential recording:Frustrated by eight years without creative freedom or commercial success, Willie Nelson left RCA Victor in 1972 only to be signed by Atlantic Records VP Jerry Wexler, a longtime fan. Willie and a group of Texas, Nashville, and Manhattan musicians (Doug Sahm and Larry Gatlin among them) recorded three albums worth of material in New York, including this benchmark collection. A musical crazy quilt reflecting Nelson's own freewheeling repertoire, it mixed Willie compositions old ('Slow Down Old World') and new ('Shotgun Willie') with a Bob Wills favorite ('Bubbles in My ...

Editorial Product Review: :In an age when barroom-'n'-cheatin' songs hit country radio program directors' wastebaskets quicker than you can say 'Foolin' Around,' it's good to remember Gary Stewart. The Kentucky native kicked around for years before breaking big in 1975 with the likes of 'Drinkin' Thing,' 'Out of Hand,' and 'She's Actin' Single (I'm Drinkin' Doubles).' If anything, those hard-driving plaints were soon eclipsed by the rocking 'Your Place or Mine (I Really Don't Care)' and 'Ten Years of This' (a bitter soliloquy delivered by a man to his wife on the occasion of their ...
