Our Take

Emmylou Harris graces us once again with her Original Album Series: Volume 2, a collection of five albums showcasing her range and talent as a singer-songwriter. While not as groundbreaking as her earlier work, this compilation still delivers the goods with Harris' signature blend of country twang and folk sensibilities.

The first album in the set, "Roses in the Snow," sees Harris tackling traditional bluegrass and country tunes with her usual grace and charm. Standout tracks include the hauntingly beautiful "The Boxer" and the toe-tapping "Green Pastures."

Moving on to "Evangeline," Harris explores more rock-infused territory with covers of songs by The Band and Neil Young, showcasing her versatility as an artist. The emotional depth of tracks like "Sister's Coming Home" and "Beneath Still Waters" make this album a standout in the collection.

"Ballad of Sally Rose" takes us on a journey through Harris' own personal experiences, weaving a captivating narrative through each track. The standout song "White Line" showcases Harris' storytelling prowess and ability to connect with her audience on a deep level.

Overall, Emmylou Harris' Original Album Series: Volume 2 is a must-have for any fan of country or folk music. While not breaking new ground, these albums showcase Harris' talent and artistry in a way that is both captivating and heartfelt. Cheers to Emmylou for continuing to bring joy to our ears with her timeless music.
