Masterful at rock, country, folk, bluegrass, and more, Emmylou Harris is one of the most distinctive and visionary voices in contemporary music. The artist's lucid, achingly gorgeous vocals and a string of celebrated albums-many featuring her acclaimed "Hot Band"-have earned Harris eleven Grammys and made this alt-country/roots-rock innovator a legend in her own time.

It's a nice sampler
While there are no dud selections on this CD, anyone who agrees that this is "The Very Best of Emmylou Harris," is just crazy. To reduce a body of work that spans more than 35 years, by one of the best artists of that period, to just 20 songs barely enables a listener to hear the best of the best. And, I wouldn't agree that this collection is the best of the best. If her label could put out the four CD Songbird collection, why couldn't they do her the justice of doing something similar for this effort?
The Very Best of Emmylou HarriS: Heartaches and Highways
Well worthwhile for a best of collection if you have none of her other recordings. The first 13 cuts are standard country fare, while the other 7 are great crossover arrangements.

Music CD review
This is a great CD for fans of Emmylou Harris. It has many favorite songs that I remember from previous CDs and also some tracks I hadn't heard before. As always, her voice delivers a true clear quality and her cover of "Love Hurts" was a genuine (and great) surprise! I would highly recommend this CD for fans of bluegrass and country rock as there are tracks that will please both audiences.
