Title: How Sheryl Crow wants to sound but won't ever
Review: A long time coming but more than worth the wait. She has made 'town' a word of three syllables and 'casserole' a word full of erotic promise in the past, so she has a lot to live up to, even without her lyrical acuity and economy. Her style hasn't changed much over the course of her last three albums: the drawling honey and grit voice, the familiar band she relaxes with, twanging and chiming guitars, well-picked guests adding colour with fiddle or organ. The world she describes is off the main roads, full of small disappointments and victories. This album makes you think that there is something worthwhile in Country music, away from the rhinestones and syrup.
