Beautiful

Review Score: (8/10)
Emmylou Harris has a very beautiful voice. And on this album, she has chosen a number of very beautiful songs. And the music has a very beautiful, sometimes haunting, sound too. When reading the reviews here on Amazon.com, I realize this album isn't for everybody, but many people will love it if you give it a chance. And don't avoid it because you don't like country, because I wouldn't call this country. But also, if you're a country fan, don't avoid this album because it's not country.

Give it a chance. Wrecking Ball will forever be a classic.
