4.0 out of 5 stars Good collection of current "Americana" artists, September 6, 2004

This review is from: Grass Is Always Bluer (Audio CD)

The Nettwerk label, once a bastion of grinding, blaring, '80s-style industrial music, has recently done a major about-face, delving deep into the current crop of mellow, melodic indiepop-Americana crossovers, and has become home to several of the genre's most promising new artists. The Be Good Tanyas, Shelley Campbell, Nathan, Oh Susannah and Old Crow Medicine Show represent the newly retooled label on this fine Americana sampler, which also pulls from several other sources to include stalwarts such as Iris Dement, Emmylou Harris, The Jayhawks, Rhonda Vincent, Gillian Welch and Lucinda Williams, for a well-programmed sampler of the current wealth of rootsy singers out there today. Nice collection!

I loved this cd -- what a fascinating collection of artists. Great exposure to an interesting cross section of sounds and artists.

1.0 out of 5 stars Blue and Grass should not be together in this title, June 25, 2004

This review is from: Grass Is Always Bluer (Audio CD)

I thought I was getting a bluegrass CD, but this was a HUGE disappointment, for pete sake, there are drums on most of the tracks. Out of 14 songs, I would only want to hear two of them again, not worth the price paid.
