 Joe Sixpack's Country Record Reviews: 2000-2001
Here are some more relatively recent country records which have caught my attention, back in the year 2000, when we thought the world was gonna end.
It's interesting that Emmylou -- who built her career around picking simple, beautiful country love songs and infusing them with emotional power through her voice alone -- has come to a point in life where her own artistic vision is so profoundly spiritual and complex that it can only be accomodated with muted, quiet reserve.
Still, this is one of the best traditionally-oriented acoustic music albums to come down the pike in a long, long while, and it's every bit as well-conceived, well-constructed and thoroughly enjoyable as the movie itself.
