    Bring your hankie. [29 Sep 2006, p.80]
  3. Quite simply, Nashville is a necessary addition to the collection of anyone who respects the tradition of great singing and storytelling.

    [A] heartfelt tribute to country music. [Dec 2006, p.133]

    Burke's prodigious talent and larger-than-life presence ensures the big name cameos don't steal his thunder. [Nov 2006, p.102]
  6. At 66, Burke might have lost some vocal force and fullness, but his singing is agile, elastic and, most important, packed with sorrow and humor that pull you in no matter what the genre.
  7. Luminaries such as Emmylou Harris, Gillian Welch and Dolly Parton also make appearances -- but it's always clear who's sitting on the throne.
