Hits & Rarities - Sheryl Crow

Wildflower - Sheryl Crow

a pleasing new age twang, Crow and her gang of musicians craft a gorgeous world of hippy-dippy sentimentality and hard edged anger that always engages me. I never really liked Sheryl Crow under I hit my twenties and now she has to rank as one of my favourite female vocalists, I love her sweet but powerful voice that hides just enough country finesse to keep me smiling and think she always produces polished, intriguing albums that have really intelligent, evocative lyrics and a real ‘moments’ feeling. When I listen to Wildflower it always reminds me of a really great movie soundtrack in the sense that it provokes emotions, it enhances simple moments and is just great for ...

Very Best Of Sheryl Crow - Sheryl Crow

I’ve always thought of Sheryl Crow as being a very middle of the road artist, kind of like a solo female version of Dire Straits – inoffensive, but not especially appealing. I’d vaguely enjoyed the singles she’d released, but without ever becoming a fan, seeing them as a kind of background music, the kind of pop with a slight country edge that my parents might enjoy, but which never really enticed me to make an album purchase. This makes me the perfect market for a “Greatest Hits” album. I’ve often seen “Greatest Hits” albums as a bit of a rip off, usually because they add in a couple of new tracks, or new versions of old song to persuade the dedicated fan of the ...
