Oh, Manchester, So Much To Answer For

listening to sheryl crow’s ’02-’03 string (post- the smiling-avril-rag of “soak up the sun”) - the rockin’ “steve mcqueen,” her fine cmt crossroads performance of “abilene” with willie nelson, and the kid rock duet “picture” – I observed to stumpy recently that I’d love to hear her make a country record. you can’t tell me sheryl doesn’t have more than a little emmylou and dolly in her.
