NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - Ruby - 10-11-2018 ROSANNE CASH – She Remembers Everything   I have never listened to Rosanne Cash before – probably should have! She errs more on the side of folk and Americana than country, certainly on this release – there’s a leetle touch of a twangy Western sound about it in places (which to me evokes the sound of the Twin Peaks theme and Calexico – the best ‘sounds like’ I can come up with!) – not sure what it is – could be the baritone guitar. I like it. Steady arrangements largely thanks to husband, John Leventhal (who had a hand in co-writing and who also has a most impressive CV, inclusive of playing with Paul Simon, David Crosby, Jackson Browne, Marc Cohn, Charlie Haden, Emmylou, Levon Helm, Donald Fagan, Bruce Hornsby, etc.,), there are lovely instruments here and it’s sooo good when you can hear that these are musicians who are right at home with what they’re doing. Given her lineage, it’s no surprise that she’s an accomplished singer/songwriter who knows how to wield a pen as well as her voice (which incidentally reminds me a bit of Dani Klein now and then, in a diluted but not wishy washy way). Just look at this – Light is particle and wave Our history's written large upon the page The star in middle age The love that fades to black Once revealed, won't be taken back Light nothing can escape The ignorance we once forgave The future if we don't decide to change The things we cannot save But it slows to shine upon your face We owe everything Everything Everything To this rainbow of suffering Light is particle and wave Reflections of this place Refractions of our grace It reveals what we won't dare And it's slow so I can hold you near Intelligent, never overwrought or overproduced, serious but not dire, she has the good sense to enlist contributions from artists with heft – how much longer can we expect to hear from Kris Kristofferson for example? He and Elvis Costello both appear on “8 Gods of Harlem”, Colin Meloy (Decemberists) shows up intermittently and the title track is shared with Sam Phillips. I think that this is an album you can listen to several times and keep discovering little gems. There are no jarring moments, it’s mature, measured, warm, confident music making; sometimes, there’s not a whole lot more one can ask for!

RE: NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - Ruby - 10-11-2018 ^That's ok CH – it’s a question of personal taste, and as we know, we don’t all like the same stuff. Thanks for listening anyway! I simply cannot listen to her father which might be one of the reasons I never bothered to hear out Rosanne before.  Funny ol’ world!  RE: NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - Music Head - 10-11-2018 one of my fav RC tracks RE: NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - CRAZY-HORSE - 11-11-2018 are you a RC fan MH??? RE: NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - Music Head - 11-11-2018 I have 3 consecutive albums Right Or Wrong, Seven Year Ache, Somewhere In The Stars I like them all don't recall hearing any of the others So I guess I was a fan for about 2 years RE: NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - Music Head - 20-11-2018 enters the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart this week at #172 pleasant enough album for me would be on my list of course most any album where I don't get the f or n bomb thrown at me works these days  Rosanne still has a good voice for being 40 years in the business no Seven Year Ache on here but it's all good and it was a pleasure to hear Kris and Elvis RE: NEW ALBUM: Rosanne Cash - She Remembers Everything - SteveO - 20-11-2018 ^ Roseanne is a decent and respected artist !
