Shelby Lynne

Thanks, Csl.

Shelby Lynne's two albums (the new one and "I am Shelby Lynne) are definitely good one's IMHO. If anyone wants some others to check out in the genre, my recommendations are:

Bettye LaVette (real soul)- Scene of the crime
Buddy and Julie Miller- same
Jollie Holland- Escondida (more New Orleans jazz I guess)
Tift Merrett- Bramble Rose
Laretta Lynn- Van Lear Rose

Another really good LP I just got was Rickie Lee Jones- It's like this.... The 45rpm Analog prod. deal..... Really, really good stuff

There is also Shelby Lynne- Epic Recordings, which is a compilation of material from the early 90s. And I can't recommend Tift Merritt Bramble Rose highly enough, particularly the last track "When I Cross Over" which is one of my all-time favorites.

"identity crisis" is one of my favorites by Shelby Lynne. along with the voice (which is incredible), her writing is just great, and her good taste is really evident in all of her recordings.

"I Am Shelby Lynne" is absolutely essential, but the more I listen to her the more I think everything she does is.

I have the record and like it quite a bit. The vinyl is a bit noisy but listenable. I understand it was recorded analog. Does anyone know if it was mixed and/or mastered in digital for the vinyl (was the same master used for both CD and LP?)? I year a bit of flatness that I normally associate with digital.
