Sheryl Crow “100 Miles From Memphis”
Standouts - “Stop,” “Roses and Moonlight,” “I Want You Back”
Although working from home is convenient, sometimes it pays to go to the office. That’s what Sheryl Crow discovered when she jettisoned her Nashville home studio for a Los Angeles one to record her latest album, “100 Miles From Memphis.” The L.A. location led a few famous friends to stop by, including Justin Timberlake, Keith Richards and Citizen Cope. But the star of the album is the sound of Memphis, a mix of rock, soul and country that influenced Crow when she grew up in Kennett, Mo., which, like the title of her album says, is about 100 miles away.
