5.0 out of 5 stars
Soon to be your favorite, too!,
By bluegrass lover (California) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crowd Favorites (Audio CD)
An excellent anthology from Claire Lynch's rich repertoire, plus four superb new recordings with her current killer band (Missy Raines, 7-time IBMA Bass Player of the Year; Jim Hurst, 2x IBMA Guitar Player; Jason Thomas from Kane's River on fiddle/mando -- monster pickers, all). The 8-minute version of "Wabash Cannonball" alone is worth the price of this CD, just to hear what these musicians can do when they stretch out. Some of the new recordings are of classic songs from Lynch's days with the Front Porch String Band.
Great bluegrass and more from this no-boundaries, genre-bending artist, with selections that showcase her superb songwriting talent as well as that magical, inimitable voice. (The frequent comparison to Emmylou Harris is a shorthand that misses the highly distinctive nature of each voice.) It's no wonder that she's been tapped to record with everyone from Linda Ronstadt to Dolly Parton to Ralph Stanley -- but it's as a lead vocalist that she really shines. As Parton has said, Lynch has "one of the sweetest, purest and best lead voices in the music business today." You could safely give this CD to someone who doesn't much care for bluegrass, and you could equally safely give it to a diehard bluegrass fan. This collection is proof that, just sometimes, the crowd is right!

This Lady Defies Description,
By Onslo (Boulder City, Nevada United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crowd Favorites (Audio CD)
I'll never forget when I first ran across Claire Lynch as part of the Front Porch String Band. It's not that she has the traditionally most beautiful voice you'll ever hear.....it's that it's the purest and most moving voice that I for one have had the privilege of hearing. Whether she's on the road singing harmony with Dolly Parton or doing her own thing, she surrounds herself with the best and I truly believe her to be the best of the best. P.S. should you purchase this CD, I promise you will never think of or hear the "Wabash Cannonball" any other way than it is presented on this recording. As much as I loved Mr.Acuff, I'm certain he's doing somersaults in Heaven listening to Claire's rendition of one of his trademark songs.

Another great Claire Lynch compilation. I bought Whatchyagonnado and Crowd Favorutes at the same time.
And how cool it was to hear the Claire Lynch Band on Sirius radio Sunday Sept 27th discussing their music.
