For some fairly shallow performers, there comes a time when their craft becomes a chore, when scribbling songs for the big follow-up album turns into a black-and-white deadline. Clever composers can almost disguise this ennui, burying it in a smarmy, sunshine-beaming mix. Key word: almost. Ergo, a trial spin through clever composer Sheryl Crow's The Globe Sessions evokes the faintest hint of a feeling that grows stronger with each successive listening--there's no sense that the artist intended this material as anything more than tepid album filler. A conversation with your local supermarket checkout girl would prove far more riveting than Crow's pretentious and all-too-casual observations (set to the tune, it must be noted, of some likable, jangly hooks). "Get out the camera, take a picture / The drag queens and the freaks are all out on the town," she purrs over chucka-chucka choogling on "There Goes the Neighborhood," which is probably what any self-respecting drag queen or freak would mutter once Crow moved in, scrounging for her now-patented vicarious cool. The closest The Globe Sessions comes to any palpable sincerity is during an actually-might've-lived-it, whoops-I'm-in-trouble-again "Mississippi." Even then, Crow drowns the moment in perfectly enunciated syllables, more prissy than alleycat-prowling. Crow started out with a credible Tuesday Night Music Club pedigree, surrounded by visionaries such as David Baerwald (For this disc, she relies heavily on ex-Wire Train mainstay Jeff Trott). But they're gone, and things change, to the point where, if you support this silly sycophant with your hard-earned dollars, there's only one question that you'll need to be asked: Do you want paper or plastic? --Tom Lanham

Not very good at all, Sheryl........2007-06-06

I bought this CD because I liked My Favorite Mistake. I definitely should've listened to samples though, because the rest of the CD is unmemorable. I don't remember ONE song from this disc besides the mentioned single. I really did try hard to like it though - I was waiting and waiting for another song to hit me but it never happened.

I give this CD 2 stars because My Favorite Mistake is a pretty good song, and plus I'm sure that there is worse out there. But not much worse. I'm SO disappointed. I was eagerly awaiting this CD once I purchased it used. I haven't listened to it since.

Not recommended at all.

My Favorite Mistake, the video.......2007-01-05

I didn't see it mentioned but this enhanced CD includes a music video of her performing My Favorite Mistake. Incredibly powerful in showing what a beautiful woman she really is. Well worth buying the CD just for the video.

"I spent a year in the mouth of a whale...".......2006-05-01

The Globe Sessions is Sheryl's Crow best album yet. I love all 11 tracks, they are personal, raw, and intelligent. I heard Crow didn't even want to release this album because of its private content, she thought this album was too personal like a diary and she wasn't ready to share inner-most thoughts with the rest of the world. I am glad she did release this amazing album, i like when Crow is vulnerable and open for discussion. My Favorite Mistake, about her relationship with Eric Clapton: "Your friends are sorry for me, they watch you pretend to adore me but I'm no fool to this game." There Goes the Neighborhood is a rock song, fun and cool lyrics: "I dropped acid on a Saturday night just to see what the fuss was about..." The best song on the record is Riverwide, beautiful and sweeping song: "Tell ma i loved the man even though i turned and ran, lovely and fine i could have been, laying down in the palm of his hand..." It Don't Hurt is coming to terms with a broken relationship and finding someway to move on: "The electric man looks good today, well maybe not, trying hard to feel that way, the electric man's a good place to start." Maybe that's Something is mellow and cool: "Maybe that's something, maybe that's one more thing more than nothing." Am I getting Through is full of contradictions, it rocks! "I'm afraid I am queer..." Anything but Down is my fave song: "I bring you apples from the vine, how quickly you forget, I ran the bath and pour the wine." The Difficult Kind, a little too long but still lovely: "If you could see what love has made of me then I'd no longer be in your mind, the difficult kind, 'cause babe I've changed." Mississippi is written by Bob Dylan, this song is very country to me: "The only thing that I did wrong, i stayed in Mississippi a day too long." Members Only, I loved this song on first listen, her best uptempo song: "Uncle Larry's hooked on ice again, he seems to be stuck in the '80s, he wears his Members Only jacket 'cause he thinks it turns on all the ladies..." Crash and Burn is gorgeous, you can hear the sadness in Crow's voice: "In case you ever want to track me down, I'll take my cell phone to bed..." There is a hidden track so don't skip over it. The Globe Sessions is Crow's masterpiece, buy it now.

The Difficult Kind.......2006-03-17

The Amazon reviewer is a moron, plain and simple. But I can't blame him for his religion. I too, believe I am a music snob, and if you play a dozen or so of Sheryl Crowe's songs, I would scoff too.

But I recently heard "The Difficult Kind" at a friend's house, and asked what the heck album this is from, because THIS is the kind of song she was born to play. Slow, thoughtful, melodic, heartfelt. I was hooked from the first few notes. I can't believe it took me so long to hear this great song.

I think the reviewer made the same mistake I did: he went into the listening experience with certain assumptions and expectations as to what this album would sound like and what it would be, and he never listened to the whole thing. Because if he had listened to the entire album, he would have heard "The Difficult Kind" and he would have had at least one good thing to say about the album. And that is a cardinal rule of any reviewer who really, REALLY knows music: you must find something good to say about every album you review, because even in this corporate music driven-world every album is in at least some small way a labor of love, and the artists deserve our admiration for putting themselves out there, if nothing else. God knows we're not doing it, and it's pathetically easy to judge someone else's work when you haven't even tried.

"The Difficult Kind" is not only a highly redeeming track, it's probably worth the price of the disc.

Classic.......2005-10-25

I've had this album since it came out and I have to say, it is one of my all-time favorite albums. To this day, I listen to it and think what a genius Sheryl is, and why some consider her a legend. "My Favorite Mistake" is amazing, one of my favorite "sad love songs" ever. If you don't pay attention, the song can blend in as a mellow/semi-bland sounding light rock tune--but when I listen to the wistfulness of the lyrics and Sheryl's perfect delivery of them, the song sums up some of my (past) relationship thoughts to a "T". Another stand-out song is "Crash and Burn" that only Sheryl can deliver with such raw emotion. It starts out seemingly innocuous enough...but then she lets it all out! Sheryl is one of the best at the sadder, more introspective song without sappiness. I guess she could be considered "depressing" (as some of my friends say), but she seems to keep a level of intelligence and realness about her that makes you think, "Yeah, sometimes I feel near the end of my rope.... but I'll pull through." I also really like her albums "Tuesday Night Music Club" and "C'mon C'mon" but this album along with "Sheryl Crow" are the must-haves of Sheryl.

Sheryl's 3rd cool album.......2004-04-26

This album didn't spawn many Top 20 hits like her first two albums. The biggest hit on this album is MY FAVORITE MISTAKE. I like MEMBERS ONLY because of the awesome lyrics("All the white folks shake their asses!"). In the song,all the rich kids and politicians shake their asses also. I also like MISSISSIPPI,CRASH AND BURN and THERE GOES THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

I used to love it..........2000-12-22

It's one of those CD's that has to hit you at the right time in your life for it to be appriciated and then once you grow out of it.... it's not as fun to listen to anymore... but if you like Sheryl and maybe want to branch out try Ani Difranco. I found Ani via another Sheryl fan which makes me grateful for my past ovbsession with SC.

I Think She is Moving Towards The Blues.......2000-03-14

I loved this album, highly listenable for die-hard fans. It can also draw in some new fans, from the beginning. My favorite songs are>>"Riverwide", "It Don't Hurt", "Anything But Down", and the beautiful bluesy ballad "The Difficult Kind". I think she is maturing more and more, probably until an album of hers explodes with perfection. Some songs are like stray tracks, but it's all good, it is worth your listening.

Three hits in a row........1999-09-02

I've loved all 3 of Sheryl Crow's CDs, but especially like the songwriting on this one. Listen to "The Difficult Time" a few times to realize what a powerful lyricist she is. Great job.

This is one of the best albums by sheryl crow,.......1999-08-22

This is one of the best releases by sheryl crow ever, she has always been and will continue to be a great artist both live and in the studio. Sheryl is an inspiration to me. Sheryl Crow is like god to me. She is the greatest modern pop artist ever.

Sheryl Crows best album.......2006-01-24

Sheryl Crow over the last decade or so has established herself as one of the top writers in music.
Sheryl is somewhat of a throwback to the 70's or possibly the 60's.
Sheryl not only writes top folk songs, but can Rock an audience as well.
The Globe Sessions is to date, her finest work.
Included on the CD are, There Goes the Neighborhood which is one of her better songs.
My Favorite Mistake is rumored to be about her fling with Eric Clapton, that did not work out. My Favorite Mistake features some outstanding guitar from her guitarist Peter Stroud.
Anything but Down is another great song.
The Difficult Kind follows, and features some outstanding harmony as well as fine lyrics. Mississippi is another great song.
Sheryl Crow has not only established herself among Rock audiences, she is also establishing herself amongst Country audiences.
I remember the first time I heard the CD. I enjoyed it very much and it was a breath of fresh air............you will too.

Good album, decent sacd mix.......2004-12-24

I'll just talk about how the sacd sounds since you can read the album review elsewhere. I compared it with my old cd version and there was no doubt that the sacd sounded better. Tighter bass, near life-like vocals, a more natural sound all around. I didn't care much for the multichannel mix. It's kind of like they tried too hard to use the surrounds and ended up with a bare front sometimes. I don't think rhythm guitars should be coming from the surround speakers.

To sum it up, good quality with an adventurous multichannel mix.

Awesome.......2000-02-08

I held off buying this album for quite awhile. I mean, I wondered how Sheryl could top her self-titled album *and* do something unique.

The 'studio' CD contains 'The Globe Sessions' with some extra tracks. It's a great album, musically and lyrically. There are a wide range of songs from the quite haunting 'Riverwide' -- my personal favorite -- to the Stonesey, hip-hop sounding 'There Goes the Neighborhood'. It's quite obvious Sheryl is experimenting with many different sounds. I think in retrospect this album will be seen as a turning point album as well. Many of the tracks make me feel like she's searching for a sound but hasn't quite found it. Then there are songs like 'Riverwide' and 'Crash and Burn' that burn right into your soul.

The 'live' album is just great. It's done (I think) strictly with one or two acoustic guitars on each track, and she has fabulous backup vocals from Tim Smith on some of the tracks.

If you're a Sheryl Crow fan you should own this album. (So then, how come only 4 stars? Well, I mean she's done just 3 albums so far. I gotta leave room to maneuver in the future:)

Sheryl Crow has REAL talent.......1999-05-22

Sheryl Crow has always been a great song writer, and performer. The more personal content of her newest album, makes her even better. The live cd is absolutely wonderful. The live album is just a woman, a guitar, and a microphone. (with a back-up) She is out there completely raw and exposed during this performance and it is absolutely fabulous. Get the album for "The Globe Sessions" and then treat yourself to the awsome ability of a truly great live performer.

an acoustic live cd is included in this version of the globe sessions, and the performances are excellent.
