Could everyone please listen to "best of Cowboy Junkies" before we have any further discussions, just so we can get some perspective on where you may be coming from....
Make that Jacintha's "Lush Life" and Jennifer Warnes "the well"... My mistake but in any case you can't go wrong.
if you haven't heard Lorrie Morgan's Secret love and the Dianne Schuur's Swingin'for Schuur... you should add them to your collection... Patricia Barber, Mary Timmins, Lucinda Williams, and Diana Krall for sure... I have to agree with those who may not play Jennifer Warnes cd's quite as often as the others.
Try Diane Schuur (especially "Swingin'for schuur") Patricia Barber (any of hers), The best of Joan Baez, The best of Crystal Gail ("I'll get over you") Margo Timmins of the Cowboy Junkies (any of them) and finally Lucinda Williams (any also). These should keep you listening for awhile.
I just bought Jennifer Warnes "lush life" and once again I must admit I was mistaken... She has a wonderful voice and sings beautifully. In my earlier posting, I recommended Lorrie Morgan's "Secret Love".. She is a country singer and this album is a departure from that and is nothing like her other recordings. Both Dianne Schuur and Lorrie Morgan are strong singers, unlke Norah Jones, which may put some of you off. I still feel that most of you will find it worth your time.
