Absolutely Brilliant August 7, 2008 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Emmylou never fails to deliver and on "All I Intended To Be", she continues to use that magic voice, beautiful melodies and a heart-crippling "All That You Have Is Your Soul".
I would suggest buying this album if you are a long-time fan....see the change Emmylou has made from the 70's until now, she is truly a rare gem.
Another wonderful collection! August 5, 2008 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
I absolutely love this cd... it was worth the wait. Personally think it's her best since Wrecking Ball, but then again I love everything she does. If you love Emmylou you must add this to your collection.
Unashamed unadulterated roots music August 4, 2008 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
Emmylou Harris may be so good, she is at her penultimate for most of her career. I admit, I enjoy her soulful voice and spare orchestrations so much that I really cannot claim to have a favorite CD from her releases.
This 2008 release was produced by her former husband, Bruce Ahern. You'll hear old friends on this CD, including Dolly Parton (backup on "Gold") and Buddy Miller. The 'songfinder' has snagged some great music, too, from the likes of Tracy Chapman and Kate McGarrigle.
"Broken Man's Lament" talks about not messing with someone else's dreams. When the subject married a bar singer, he asked her not to sing.
"Gold" talks about the human failings in all of us:
"no matter how bright I glitter, baby, I can never be gold"
Probably my favorite song of this collection is "All that you have is your soul" by Tracy Chapman. This song contains some of the best life advice you can get.
In this case, I think a lot of this CD was gold as soon as it was released.

Emmylou at her best, as usual August 3, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
It sure is good to have another album by Emmylou Harris, and this one shows the depth of experience. We're enjoying it!

This album is gorgeous. Emmylou's voice is one-of-a-kind and gives me chills. Her cover of "All That You Have is Your Soul" is my favorite song of the year so far. "Broken Man' Lament" is similarly wonderful. Give this CD a chance and let Emmylou take you away!
