For the past few days I've been listening to a singer-songwriter gone country. While Jewel Kilcher has shifted a few genres in her albums, essentially she's a girl from Alaska with her guitar and a song.
Jewel "Anyone But You"
Jewel going country had me wondering about country artistes who went the other direction - and two immediately came to mind. Tammy Wynette and Loretta Lynn. Check out their videos :
Tammy Wynette with The KLF "Justified and Ancient"
The KLF were nuts but they also came up with some seriously good tunes.
Loretta Lynn "Portland, Oregon"
This shows what happens when you make Jack White (of The White Stripes fame) the producer for your album.
