The Vinyl Countdown # 205

Rosanne Cash, Somewhere In The Stars (1982) I love Rosanne Cash. Always have really. But, funny thing, given how I discovered here, I’ve kinda worked backwards, still finding out about some of the great early records – like this. She is a great singer, a great songwriter, and when she picks a song to cover, […]

Carlene Carter: Carter Girl

Carlene Carter Carter Girl Rounder It’s no doubt a blessing and a curse – she’s a part of the Carter Family (bonus, her step-dad was Johnny Cash) but as has been the case with Rosanne Cash, there’s a tendency to think only of the lineage, of their place in the line, the foot up. Carlene […]
