| | Corn Sisters Other Women CD Corn Sisters Discography of CDs
The Corn Sisters are Neko Case and Carolyn Mark, a couple of alternative rock converts to traditional country music. (Case has two very fine albums on Bloodshot). Like most converts, they're pretty zealous, but with their excellent voices, harmonies, warmth, and humor, the Corn Sisters are way out in front of most of their alt country peers. OTHER WOMEN was recorded live in a Seattle restaurant, and what it lacks in fidelity it more than makes up for in enthusiasm, impertinence, and unadulterated vocal power.
Case has an Appalachian wail like a young Loretta Lynn that lets you know she's not a woman to be trifled with. Mark is Patsy Cline to Case's Lynn--sensuous, robust and worldly-wise. High points include a poignant version of Nick Lowe's "Endless Grey Ribbon," the sanctified gospel rave-up "This Little Light," and the mirthful, insanely catchy "Corn on the Cob." For those whose definition of country leans toward Dwight Yoakam, Kitty Wells, and The Carter Family, OTHER WOMEN is highly recommended.
Recorded live at Hattie's Hat, Seattle, Washington in May 1998.

| | Neko Case Tigers Have Spoken CD (2004)
Other Women
$11.59  
For 2004's THE TIGERS HAVE SPOKEN, her debut on the prestigious Anti label, alt-country singer/songwriter Neko Case forgoes a studio album in favor of a live outing. Those looking for the upbeat pop of Case's work with the New Pornographers won't find it here--this is straight-up twangy country rock that sticks closely to the sound of her previous records (BLACKLISTED and FURNACE ROOM LULLABY), and makes the most of the concert setting.
The focus here, as always, is on Case's powerful voice, which channels Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn while remaining undeniably individual. Aided by the Sadies, vocalist Kelly Hogan, and pedal steel/banjo player Jon Rauhouse, Case unveils ...

The AMERICAN LAND EDITION contains five bonus tracks and, in addition to the DVD documentary included in previous editions, four bonus live videos from the 2006 tour.
Bruce Springsteen is certainly no stranger to acoustic-based, folk-inspired music. He began his career as a post-Dylan troubadour, and he's been making "unplugged" albums as far back as 1982's NEBRASKA. He's already recorded Woody Guthrie material, so it's not a shock that he would release a tribute album to folk icon Pete Seeger. WE SHALL OVERCOME: THE SEEGER SESSIONS celebrates not just Seeger's musical influence, of course, but also the political stands the singer took, which obviously resonate with the famously progressive Springsteen.
Unlike NEBRASKA, though, this is no bare-bones affair. The E Street Band may be absent, but Bruce tackles Seeger's tunes in classic larger-than-life Boss style, with a huge band that includes several string players, a horn section, accordion, and more. Incorporating everything from Dixieland to zydeco ...
