CD Reviews
A waste of time
William Mitchell | Nashville, TN | 12/26/2006
(1 out of 5 stars)
"This is as misleading as it gets...surely Emmylou didn't approve her name and picture to be featured so prominently and associated with a project she had little or nothing to do with."
Avoid this collection
Joe L. Benson | Portland, Oregon USA | 11/15/2006
(1 out of 5 stars)
"This collection of songs (Carl Jackson with Emmylou on background) has been issued under several small labels and several titles. Avoid this one. If you must have this then search for one of the many other titles that are cheaper."
RIP OFF!!! DON'T BUY THIS
Zorball Creme | Eureka, CA | 12/13/2006

"Emmylou sings lead on the first cut- and that's it. Melba Montgomery has more work as the backup singer on the rest of the songs than Ms. Harris does. This will no doubt end up as a lawsuit if it isn't recalled immediately."
DISAPPOINTMENT and DECEPTION

"EmmyLou's promoters have reached a new low. I've been a fan for years and feel used. To even put her name on the label is a disservice to her fans. She appears only a couple of times. The CD would have been fine if I had wanted only her picture, but I expected her to perform. Anyone who buys this for her music should get a full refund and an apology."
A Terrible Marketing Ploy
Steve Broadbent | Australia | 02/20/2007

"I am quite disgusted with the record company and Emmylou Harris that this record was allowed to go out under her name. I have every Emmylou album so I think I can be considered a true fan. This may be a good album if you like the music of Carl Jackson.
Basically Emmylou sings back-up on 3 tracks only and all the other tracks feature Carl Jackson and no Emmylou. Hence my disgust at the marketing ploy used. In my country this would constitute a clear breach of both State and Federal Fair Trading Laws. Sadly since I bought through the US I have no recourse to get my money back.
I have played it twice and now it will gather dust in my collection. The only good comment I can make is that it keeps my Emmylou collection complete.
Beware, if you want an Emmylou Harris album this is not for you. If you love Carl Jackson it may suit you. Even with this proviso I find it an insipid album!
I'd have given 0 stars except it wasn't an option."
