The music of Sheryl Crow has long reflected the musical passions that inspired her back
when she was growing up in Kennett, MO. From her breakthrough debut Tuesday Night Music
Club (1994) to the self-titled Sheryl Crow (1996) and her most recent studio album The
Globe Sessions (1998), Crow has continued to explore her passions and define her
distinctive voice, staking her fertile turf as a singer-songwriter. Now with her latest
shining gem, C'mon, C'mon, Crow has turned up the volume and loosened the mood to make the
direct rock & roll album that made her want to make music in the first place. C'mon,
C'mon is an instant charmer of a rock album - an immediate road trip classic. For Crow the
making of the album was a long, hard road. Indeed, even coming up with an appropriate
title for the album seemed to take forever. "The original album title was going to be
Songs from the Waiting Room because all the way through the process of making this record
that title had a lot of meaning for me," says Crow. "But that title was in conflict with
the spirit of the record."
Crow explains that she yearned to make an album "in the flavor of '70s and '80s classic
rock - rock songs that were crafted, that you could sing; songs that were like the
soundtrack to your summer - songs that were really committed to rock." And so it was that
Crow found herself with a kick-ass album and no title to match. At the eleventh hour she
speedily wrote and recorded the song "C'mon, C'mon" - a standout, crunchy rocker featuring
Crow's longtime friend Stevie Nicks. "It just seemed to evoke the feeling of the rest of
the record," Crow explains. And C'mon, C'mon is definitely an album with lots of feeling.

I don't care for her music, but her resemblance to Carly Simon has not escaped me.

She's around big time for the holidays on various music specials. She's on one of the morning shows tomorrow morning. And she's doing a guest spot with the Muppets.
