The List, Rosanne Cash
Just when it seems that the most haunting goose-bump inducing vehicle for this woman’s voice was Black Cadillac (or was it Rules of Travel? Or Interiors?), she releases this, a stunning collection of some of the best American/roots songs ever written, as if they were meant for her voice alone. She’s joined by Rufus, and Bruce, and yes, Neko. It’s crystalline, clear, and resonant. Be sure to get the itunes version, as it’s currently the only way to get the track with Neko Case, which is worth the price of the album.
