Album Notes Personnel: Sheryl Crow (vocals, acoustic guitar, accordion, piano, organ, bass instrument); Jeff Trott (acoustic guitar). More than 14 years after her lauded debut, Tuesday NIGHT MUSIC CLUB, Sheryl Crow reunited with that breakthrough album's producer, Bill Bottrell, for her 2008 outing, DETOURS. While both records are accomplished and willfully dynamic, DETOURS is the sound of someone who's been through a real emotional wringer, and, indeed, Crow had, having battled breast cancer, split from beau Lance Armstrong, and adopted a baby all shortly before these studio sessions. The resulting tracks play to Crow's strengths as both a singer and a songwriter--while the spare, lo-fi opener, "God Bless This Mess," and the achingly tender closer, "Lullaby for Wyatt," highlight her emotive, slightly sandpaper-y vocals, the jangly "Love Is Free" and the sweeping "Love Is All There Is" are catchy, top-notch pop tunes. Making some stylistic DETOURS (witness the Middle-Eastern-tinged, Madonna-like "Peace Be Upon Us"), Crow also uses this collection to get topical, not only on some of the above-mentioned songs, but on the funky, petrol-addled narrative "Gasoline" and the beat-driven missive "Out of Our Heads." Both fiery and thoughtful, DETOURS nods back to the eclecticism of MUSIC CLUB, but it also points promisingly to Crow's continued relevance as a pop fixture. | Find errors in the product description?

Didn't like the case it was in, not strong enough for shipping,but if you set on it with out the disk it won't break like the plastic ones. Review ID: 10000000005540533 Was this review helpful?

Report this review  Big DisappointmentReview created: 07/03/08 by: What a disappointment. There is not one song on the CD that will become a classic. I have tried to listen to the entire CD at once trying to be objective about it, but this ranks with her worst. Review ID: 10000000007798371 Was this review helpful?
