Product Description

CD Description

With STONES IN THE ROAD, Mary-Chapin Carpenter secures her title as country music's most successful anomaly. The formerIvy-League folkie has succeeded in creating a hit album that has virtually none of the attributes generally accepted as"country" music. And that is good news for both Mary-Chapinand country music; their audience has expanded beyond Opryland.
From the flowing piano intro on "Why Walk When You Can Fly" to Carpenter's dramatic cabaret/pop reading of "Where Time Stands Still", the listener journeys through a multi-genre world of loss, love, discovery, and eventual triumph. Her vocals are deceptively tough, rich, and passionate, especially in "House Of Cards" and "Last Word".
More deeply reflective than previous albums, STONES still has fun. "Shut Up And Kiss Me" is a playful and sexy romp, with hooks galore. The album's centrepiece, "John Doe No. 24", a contemplative ballad based on a nameless mute's obituary, is framed by Branford Marsalis' ethereal saxophone.
The razor-sharp insights of Mary-Chapin are plentiful throughout this literatealbum which not only expands the boundaries of country music, it explodes them into glittery STONES IN THE ROAD.
