Michelle Shocked as a person: who EXACTLY is she? M.S. as a musician: very interesting, catchy tunes, well-written lyrics. Perfect candidate for upcoming Lillith F- Wait, you're telling me that was 30 years ago? Where DOES the time go?

This is a CD for those who love their bluegrass and roots music with a modern twist. On some tracks Michelle takes standards like "Soldier's Joy", "St. Anne's Reel" and "Cotton-Eyed Joe" and reworks them, adding her own titles and lyrics to great effect. The catchy, rockabilly "Come A Long Way" gives us a tour of L.A. with belted-out vocals. This CD established Michelle as a star. Includes help from greats Doc Watson, Mark O'Connor, etc. Buy this one, new or used.
This bluegrass with twist of rock with keep your foot a tapp'n and your groving to the beat of the music. I was introduced to Michelle Shocked at a Women's Festival where I had the honor to hear her live and LOVED her material!! I just had to back track into her eariler works and find out how she transformed to what she is playing today. The earlier material is just as wonderful as the new! She is an incredible talent that continues to amaze me. You got to hear her to believe it and once you listen you will be hooked!!
Been looking for years for a replacement and found it! I love this album/cd
