The songs are stunning-I've never been able to embrace her vocal style. It's something I have a hard time putting my finger on, and all the more puzzling when you consider I'll gladly listen to Willie Nelson, Gordon Lightfoot, Bob Dylan, John Prine, Dwight Yoakam, Hank Williams, BB King, Keb Mo, et. al. for hours on end. None of these guys would possess what one would traditionally consider great pipes, but I love 'em all.Perhaps it's a male/female thing-my favorite female vocalists in that wonderful gumbo of country/alt country/pop/rock/blues/bluegrass that is American music where the lines are blissfully obliterated would include Emmylou Harris, Patty Loveless, Alison Krauss, Eva Cassidy, etc. All of these ladies could sing the phone book and sound beautiful doing it.
I know the Mason Williams reference was unintentional, but one of my favorite out of print LP's is Mason Williams-Hand Made. Has the original acoustic version of Classical Gas, and it still sounds warm and rich after dozens of plays.
