<<In some ways I think
it surpasses 'Wrecking Ball' and that's saying a lot.>>
I concur Mark, and for me the difference is that these are HER
songs...although Wrecking Ball is a great effort, I don't think she surpasses
the writers' versions...Neil Young's title track, Hendrix's "May This Be
Love", and "Orphan Girl".
With Red Dirt Girl, there are no comparisons to be made or preconceived
notions of these songs in my head as it's the first time I'm hearing them.
And the songs are even MORE powerful performed live with her great band!
