Chambers was born and raised on the Nullarbor Plain of Southern
Australia but, being the daughter of country music teacher Bill
Chambers, she didn't get imprinted with INXS or Midnight Oil. Instead,
she grew up surrounded by the voices of Hank Williams, Emmylou Harris
and Gram Parsons. Being young... |

Pearl (Audio CD) - November 16, 1998 |
Amazon.co.uk Review
Brooks's obvious inspirations for Double Live were all those
1970s double-album concert recordings from album-oriented-rock
influences such as Bob Seger, Kiss, and Peter Frampton. The difference
between those classic-rock sets and Garth's latest is that Live
Bullet, Alive and Frampton Comes Alive... |

An excellent album from an excellent singer
This album is excellent. The songs are a mixture and once you have
listened to it once you'll want to listen to again. Faith Hill uses her
voice to perfection and this will do really well. |

Over the course of her first albums, including her fourth, 1992's
Every Time You Say Goodbye, Alison Krauss probably did more than any
of her contemporaries to attract mainstream-country attention to
bluegrass. A traditionalist might say this is because Krauss and her

Hans Zimmer's lush and romantic Pearl Harbor album inverts every

No Fences captures Garth Brooks just after his initial success

The 1994 sequel to her mainstream country breakthrough on Come on

The beginning of a new country star
I have bought Faith's last two albums (Breathe and Faith) and this one
has to be her most country album she has recorded. But that doesn't mean
that it's bad. On the contrary, it is a great album, I loved it the
first time I listened to it. I love her version of Piece of My Heart,
it's so different... |

A restless departure from her country-folk sound, Nanci Griffith's sixth

Emmylou Harris once said of her four-shows-a-night salad days that she

Harris still spends a lot of time in left field, and it's those offbeat,
