(6 Customer Reviews)
Country star Marty Stuart's gospel album, SOULS' CHAPEL, bears not the slightest whiff of dilettantism. Every cut shines with the intensity of Stuart's passion for both the sound and the message of gospel music. Half the tunes are originals, and half come from the old-school gospel playbooks of Pops Staples, Albert Brumley, et al., but they all boast an undeniable power. Utilizing classic vocal-harmony arrangements and a twangy, reverb-laden guitar once played by the late Staples himself, Stuart lovingly adds the touch of gritty blues that is at the heart of all the greatest gospel music. The results are a fair distance from what one might call "country," but they stay close to the heart of American roots music, and consequently remain right in line with Stuart's inclusive musical vision.

$7.59 The fact that Crowell covers a Bob Dylan song here (a lovely take on "Shelter from the Storm," rendered as a duet with Emmylou Harris) is not coincidental. The influence of Dylan hangs heavy in Crowell's songwriting, from his critiques of consumer culture ("The Obscenity Prayer") to his moments of personal revelation ("Beautiful Despair").

Souls' Chapel
$9.29 On their fifth album, the Old 97's veer closer to their alt-country roots following the slight pop detour led by frontman Rhett Miller on 1999's brilliant FIGHT SONGS. This time out, Miller and his bandmates return to their collaborative ways and the result is a batch of songs about young love delivered by a group with a lean bar-band sound.
Miller's characters throughout are hard-up for love but in an endearingly awkward sort of way. "Rollerskate Skinny" finds him pitching a date at a bowling alley in the process of looking for romance, while the crackling "Buick City Complex" sees him coming right out and asking "Do you wanna mess around?" amid the ruins of a crumbling small town. Heartbreak also finds a spot at the table, whether it's the empty feeling of rejection reverberating through the lament that is "Nervous Guy," or the high-lonesome lament of "Up the Devil's Pay" that brings to mind Chris Isaak's more yearning moments. Matching up well with Miller's desperate pleas are guitarist Ken Bethea's wiry riffs that drive the honky-tonk stomp of "Am I Too Late," punctuate the soaring cheating song "Designs On You," and make "What I Wouldn't Do" an irresistible, harmony-laden delight.
Initial pressings include a free limited edition bonus CD.

| | Vince Gill Next Big Thing CD (2003)
Souls' Chapel
$12.59 "Next Big Thing" won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Male Country Vocal Performance.
This album's title is an ironic one, since Vince Gill has spent plenty of time as the Big Thing in country music. He started out as a hot-pickin' bluegrass guitarist before going solo in the mid-'80s. Some 20 years down the line, Gill has nothing to prove but still plenty to say. As always, his sound is a mix of Rodney Crowell-style '80s New Traditionalism, white soul, and pop, with a touch of that bluegrass influence coming through in his keening tenor. He's still the Mr. Nice Guy of contemporary country, soft-pedaling both the songs and the singing in a manner not unlike the Timothy B. ...
