Negative Positive
Title: What's not to like? It's still Emmylou.
Review: I've been listening to this woman/goddess since we played together at the Sunday night Hootnannies at the Lowenbrau Haus in Homewood, Alabama, in the mid-50s, and at Horsepens 40 outside of Anniston, Alabama, on Saturdays. She hasn't changed much, but she started off nearly perfect, even at the age of 15. I keep hoping to hear a recording of "The Pineywood Hills", which did to near perfection back then. As for the music on this album, what a prime selection. It may be classified by some know-it-alls as "country", but it pretty well leaps beyond the limitations of even contemporary country, whatever that might be. It sure isn't Bluegrass, and there aren't a lot of trucking tunes to worry about. A very nice easy-listening album, if you can get over the fact that sometimes you might hear a Hiwaiian steel guitar moaning in the background. Although I have the original LPs upon which most of these songs were released, I won't hesitate to acquire this one as well.
Is the review positive or negative?
