Editorial Reviews :
It's oddly coincidental that Rosanne Cash's first No. 1 country hit was 'Seven Year Ache.' As it turns out, it's been seven long years since her previous album, 1996's 10 Song Demo, and though she'd written an album's worth of songs after that, her voice suddenly gave out due to a polyp on her vocal chords. Thanks to voice therapy, Cash was able to resume singing and recording, and the result is the hauntingly beautiful Rules of Travel. Tastefully produced by husband John Leventhal and featuring guest appearances by Sheryl Crow, Steve Earle, Teddy Thompson, and Johnny Cash, the album is a showcase for Cash's trenchant, soul-baring songs about love and mortality. Nearly every song is infused with a brooding melancholy, even the ones with sweet musical hooks ('Closer Than I Appear,' 'I'll Change For You'). When you hear the poignant 'September When It Comes,' a duet with her father and one of the album's highlights, you can't help but be stirred hearing them sing, 'When the shadows lengthen and burn away the past/they will fly me like an angel to a place where I can rest.' Rules of Travel is an impressive musical return from one of our most gifted singer-songwriters--and her voice, by the way, sounds as good as ever.
Buyer Reviews :
Roseanne Cash comes back as good as ever. All you have to do is listen to her voice and interpretation of the music to know that she is one of the goddesses of country music. Great lyrics as always, introspective and personal but we all can relate to what she sings. And she has one of the truly great voices of country...ranking right up there with Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt and Patsy Cline. Once she broke away from other's influence and became her own artist, she soared to the status she holds now. This was a release many of us have been waiting for, hoping her voice would heal and she could come back strong. She proves that she hasn't lost a single note and releases another CD that all other country vocalists will have to measure up to. Thank you Roseanne.
