Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Before raising her profile as a solo artist, Emmylou Harris established herself as the harmony queen of contemporary music, from her partnership with Gram Parsons through sessions with the likes of Bob Dylan. Duets showcases her ability to bring out the best in other singers, though its grab-bag selection doesn't necessarily showcase Harris at her best. Released to capitalize on the success of her initial Trio project with Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt, it compiles her collaborations with a variety of artists from the late Parsons (their riveting rendition of "Love Hurts") to Southern Pacific ("Thing About You," a Tom Petty obscurity) to George Jones ("All Fall Down," an album highlight) to Don Williams (their hit duet of Townes Van Zandt's "If I Needed You").

I was hoping for a different version of one of the songs(which is the reason I bought the CD). Rating: - Classic EmmylouThe harmonies here are exquisite. Not sure what album Amazon's reviewer listened to, but this, as with most of her work, showcases Emmylou at her best. And, not to sound too nitpicky, but how can anyone who claims to be a true fan spell her name Emmy Lou? Browse for similar items by category:
