"There Goes The Neighborhood" was nominated for the 1999 Grammy Award for Best Female Rock Vocal Performance. | | This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. | | Her first album was studded with talented session men, but Crow's second release found her handling multi-instrumental chores with an ease that established her as a renaissance woman to be reckoned with. GLOBE SESSIONS features some famous friends, like Wendy Melvoin (of Prince fame), Heartbreaker Benmont Tench and producer Mitchell Froom (he's strictly an accompanist here; the multi-talented Crow is sole producer here). The vision presented is solidly Crow's, though. A bit more of a mixed bag than her previous work, GLOBE dips into funky, syncopated material, hard-hitting rock, and rootsy folk-rock. Dylan fans should note that Crow lends her vibrant vocal stylings to a previously unrecorded Dylan tune, "Mississippi." The loose, offhanded feel of this album contrasts her previous, more carefully constructed recordings nicely. |
