Roses In The Snow [Remastered] - Emmylou Harris

Advantages: No lyrics to get stuck in your head
Disadvantages: One for the serious listener.

...and the vagaries of musical differences caused a slow meandering of the band's fortunes through the following decade. The death of Bardens in 2002 ended the original line up, and the others have sporadically worked on original Camel material and works with other artists. Distinctly more noodly and laid back than other Progressive bands, Camel were one for the hardcore listener who appreciated esoteric eccentricity and offbeat lyrical themes. Using Latimer's flute and the saxophone of collaborator Collins, Camel were able to pursue more diverse leanings than with strings alone, and whilst never achieving the commercial successes of their counterparts, they nonetheless remain a critically acclaimed band of their time. Along with their other Decca albums - the Snow Goose was remastered and re-released in 2002 - complete with Radio and Singles Edits... Read review

Advantages: Neat production, intimate vocals
Disadvantages: Thin lyrics

...There's a strangely uneven quality to this collection of songs by Sheryl Crow. It's as if they were all penned hastily on the plane somewhere on the journey from Nashville to LA. Musically, that seems to be the trip Sheryl Crow's always taking. At times, the lyrics are vacuous, almost embarrassing, paper thin. In that context, it's extraordinary to read in the sleeve notes that 'the album was a three year labour of love'. Then she hits you with a couple of gems - 'Safe And Sound' and 'Weather Channel', both of which are dark, incisive and brooding.
