Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com's Best of 1998
Some find the Texas thrush a bit precious. (Maybe it's the way she sings "When I woke up this mawwwwwnin'" on this album's "You Were on My Mind"). Still, the sequel to her popular Other Voices, Other Rooms provides an easy-to-take introduction to some classic folk songs and performers. The likes of Lucinda Williams, Richard Thompson, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, and John Prine add depth and range to the good-natured song swap. --Steven Stolder

Amazon.com
Few performers these days take the time to pay tribute to the artists whose work shaped their sensibilities. Fewer still make the effort to track down those artists and include them in a project that calls attention to their greatness. Nanci Griffith, on the other hand, has done it twice. Other Voices, Too (A Trip Back to Bountiful) is the sequel to Other Voices, Other Rooms, Griffith's first such collection, which was a triumph on almost every level. The new album is nearly its equal, featuring performances from more than two dozen guest artists, including luminaries such as Ian Tyson, Guy Clark, Lucinda Williams, Richard Thompson, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, John Prine, Rodney Crowell, and Dave Von Ronk. The effect is not unlike that of an old-fashioned (albeit unusually large) guitar pull, with traded vocals, inspired musicianship, well-selected material, and genuine camaraderie. --Daniel Durchholz

4 out of 5 stars Ready for a Hootennany?.......2006-03-10

I might not spell it right, but I recognize a hootennany when I hear one, and that's what this is - from the song selection to the absolutely relaxed, kicked-back delivery of its many contributing Americana artists. It won't suit you if you're looking for hip, slick, cool and polished. But these artists are among the greats of Americana music - John Prine, Guy Clark, Jimmy Gilmore, many others (anothe review here names them) - and they're all longtime pros. Why bother dressing it up with a heavy production when you have people of this caliber contributing? This is a fine, fun, highly varied album. Very much worth getting.

5 out of 5 stars A classic covers album that compliments the first instalment.......2005-04-24

Sweet Nanci has done it again! This follow-up to the excellent OTHER VOICES OTHER ROOMS also boasts an impressive line-up of guest performers and Nanci's fantastic vocals and guitar talent to boot. This was one of the first Nanci Griffith albums I heard and was taken aback with CANADIAN WHISKEY thinking 'where did this guy come from and what's THIS?' but this one's a grower, a classic folk song about a woman wronged by a man she thought loved her and became a recluse(drining the aforemnentioned booze, now I wonder why I like drinking the stuff now . . .). WALL OF DEATH(and other tracks) features Richard Thompson guesting, YOU WERE ON MY MIND is a 1960s pop cover which Nanci belts out with some gusto - loved the vocal delivery at the start! WALK RIGHT BACK, written by and featuring Crickets stalwart Sonny Curtis we all know from The Everly Brothers' hit single version, this I have to say is equally as great. Listen out for some fantastic vocal harmonies on WINGS OF A DOVE by Lucinda Williams, Nanci and Lee Satterfield. DESPERADOES has some funny Southern hillbilly vocals and is a bit cheesy, but entertaining nonetheless. The real tearjerkers for me on here WHO KNOWS WHERE THE TIME GOES(for Sandy Denny) and HARD TIMES COME AGAIN NO MORE, this is enhanced by Celtic influences, both moving and uplifting. Other highlights - WASN'T THAT A MIGHTY STORM - loved the screaming vocals and the telling of the story in the song of the Galveston hurricane and floods in 1900 - you also get CAROLYN HESTER and EMMYLOU HARRIS guesting on here too(yesss!), and the wonderful and touching YARRINGTON TOWN along with the Hester and Harris daughters; DEPORTEE with the bit in Spanish and its harmonies, not to mention Odetta guesting; STREETS OF BALTIMORE with the entertaining John Prine on additional vocals and the(apparently) legendary HArlan Howard's VERY cheesy spoken word interlude and IF I HAD A HAMMER, an old standard done brilliantly which will have everyone singing along before you know it! Overall, this is a CD which can be enjoyed by all ages and many thanks to Nanci and her buddies for keeping these great and entertaining songs alive for future generations to appreciate!

4 out of 5 stars Excellent Compilation.......2003-08-06

I've been a Nancy Griffith fan since her first recordings on Rounder Records and have seen her live more times than you can shake a stick at. When she left Rounder for the big time, I wasn't all that impressed. Fame, apparently, has it's costs. But time has treated her well and I really like this album. It has a ton of variety in both its songs and the musicians that participated. Nancy's voice is aging to perfection, with less of the cutesy nasality than in her youth and more body to the tone. This is a fun album of folk classics.

2 out of 5 stars a flop.......2003-04-02

if your into more of Nanci's folkabilly work, stay away from this cd. I bought other voices first, then came back and bought other voices too, what a dissapointment "too" was too uptown for me

4 out of 5 stars Between 3 and 4 stars.......2003-02-15

There are 73 minutes in this cd, but it could have been a much better cd at 50 minutes, some songs are great, others just are not so good, not enough to be in a CD. But this cd will always be important for collectors, in it you'll find the best version of Guy Clark's Desperadoes waiting for a train, with a cast including JJ Walker, JD Guilmore, S Earle, Guy Clark,
other in this cd include Lucinda williams, Tom Russell, Richard Thomspon, Ian Tyson, a great cast of songwriters and singers.
