For some decades now, Southern belle Emmylou Harris has been a muse to the folk-rock industry. As it's grown from the psychedelic fringes of West Coast 60s rock to its current mainstream incarnation, Harris has been a winsome sister and now godmother to the genre, inducted into the County Music Hall of Fame earlier this year. She certainly cuts a fine matriarchal figure. Her head of silver hair the only obvious sign of age. The singer must have lived cleanly to have weathered the years so gracefully, and particularly to have maintained a singing voice which endures in such mint condition. ...

Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris - Real Live RoadRunning Release Date: November 14, 2006 Image: http://i34.tinypic.com/2nbyrle.jpg Recorded live at the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles, California on June 28, 2006, this DVD finds Knopfler and Harris treating the audience to a set that includes many tracks from their duets album, but also music from their respective careers. For several years, the iconic Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris have been quietly recording a remarkable collection of duets whenever the Grammy winning artists could steal away from their own illustrious careers. The extraordinary result is All the Roadrunning. The songs from their Nashville sessions, all originals, while undeniably modern, have the appeal of classics, whether country, Celtic flavored or gently soulful. All the Roadrunning is Knopfler & Harris making music and, as the lyric for "This is Us" puts it, making history. Tracklist: 01. Right Now 02. Red Staggerwing 03. Red Dirt Girl 04. I Dug Up a Diamond 05. Born to Run 06. Done With Bonaparte 07. Romeo and Juliet 08. Song for Sonny Liston 09. Belle Starr 10. This Is Us 11. All the Roadrunning 12. Boulder to Birmingham 13. Speedway at Nazareth 14. So Far Away 15. Our Shangri-La 16. If This Is Goodbye 17.

In the Fuel, Friends interview from a few days back Grace had this to say about women musicians.

When I was a kid, Emmylou was the kind of older woman you’d admire from a distance, talented and cool and hanging out with the unspeakably cool guys, older than us and experienced, who were always just back from Kashmir or Lhasa or Kathmandu.  The kind of gifted, unattainable girlfriend everybody wanted but you knew [...] ...

As much as I love Emmylou Harris' Wrecking Ball -- you really didn't want to be hanging around me in 1995 if I were anywhere near a CD player -- two additional albums in the same vein started to feel ... familiar. And Harris isn't one to dwell on the familiar for very long. To bastardize Sir Isaac Newton, every zig has an equal and opposite zag. With All I Intended to Be , Harris returns to her role as interpreter, and she works with her very first producer, Brian Ahrens, for the first time in two decades. It's not a complete return to the past, however -- a few of her own songs are thrown into the mix. What results is a wonderfully organic and rustic work, a culmination of Harris' storied career as performer and songwriter. Harris calls herself a "finder of songs", and no less than Pitchfork claims Harris doesn't really record a bad album -- just different levels of good. For listeners familiar with her work, All I Intended to Be can easily rank with Bluebird and the Trio album with Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt. It may even keep good company with Pieces of the Sky and Wrecking Ball . All those albums exhibit Harris' incredibly keen ear and sharp taste. So too with this album. Harris strings together these songs so tightly, they feel like the work of a single writer, even though they make a diverse set. "Broken Man's Lament" and "How She Could Sing the Wildwood Flower" feel far more rural than the more contemporary "Shores of White ...

Great. Odd. Cool. Naff. Elegant. Country. The voice is beginning to work a little harder occasionally, but it’s still pretty amazing. The sound system was a teensy-smeensy bit too loud, but overall, she delivered. The standout (for the post-Lanois crowd) was ‘Goodbye’, but for the pre-reinvention crowd, it was probably ‘Boulder to Birmingham’ or ‘Born to [...] ...

He has never been afraid to speak his truth, especially in songs. Yet Rodney Crowell, the man who purloined romantic devastation with "Ashes By Now," salvaged a shred of dignity with "I Don't Have To Crawl," celebrated unbridled female spirit in "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" and maintained in the struggle "Til I Gain Control Again," has been walking some hardcore lines the last ten years. With The Houston Kid, he reckoned with the ghosts of poor white trash upbringing in East Houston - and sowed humanity where there was mostly broken dreams and shattered hope. For The Outsider, he considered the wreckage of political hypocrisy and its pompous choke effect. Then there was the deeply person Fate's Right Hand that took the awareness of time's passage, youth's fading and the realities of maturing as its truth and jagged beauty. Humanity is Crowell's stock in trade. Compassion through a prism of unfiltered truth. Hard to take, and the only chaser is that beat that just keeps thumping, those melodies that both rile and hush you. Lines to walk, lines to cross, places to arrive at with your mind wife open. Once upon a time, in a pink bedroom in a suburb known for a certain sort of social status, a kid fell in love with so many of the songs on Emmylou Harris' records, not even knowing Rodney Crowell was the silvery-voiced honky tonktress' Sancho Panza. No, he was an old guy with a soul that had been around for ages... who understood the t ...
