Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Another good driving CD........2002-03-29

Outside of Adam Duritz's cover of "Carmelita," Joe Ely's "Saint Valentine," and Bill and Bonnie Hearne and Willie Nelson's "Eighteen Inches of Rain," there's not much here to write home about. However, it is all quite enjoyable. Put this in the car and start driving, because that's what this is for.

5 out of 5 stars Nothing Better Than This.......2001-10-12

I heard this CD playing in a music shop. Call it luck and I bought it right away and will never be sorry. It introduced me to Bill and Bonnie Hearne and I get to hear Carmelita which I first heard Linda Ronstadt sing. There's not a recording on this CD that I don't like. I wish all compilations were this excellent.

4 out of 5 stars An enjoyable collection of southwestern music.......2000-07-12

This disc actually does a good job of capturing the feeling of traveling along I-10 through TX, NM, AZ and CA, and the different musical cultures one encounters. It's a feeling I know -- I live a mile from the highway in question and drive it to work each day, and have traveled to Houston and other destinations on I-10. (In fact, I first listened to the CD while driving on I-10.) The collection has performances from some familiar people like Willie Nelson and Joe Ely, plus some I've never heard of (Bill Hearne, Meredith Marshall) but will look for in the future. They do pleasant and real versions of songs that talk about traveling, and life at various places along the road. Besides the expected country and roots-rock flavors, there are dashes of Mexican and Native music, adding spice to the blend. My only minor quibbles are: (1) what's Cuban musician Eliades Ochoa doing on the album? I-10 doesn't go anywhere near Cuba! and (2) how can the song "Everybody's Talkin'" be used on both this project AND the "Bleecker Street" compilation from last year? I don't think it works equally well for summing up Greenwich Village in the `60s AND the modern US southwest! (I think "Bleecker Street" was the right place.)

5 out of 5 stars best road album of the year.......2000-04-16

as a fan of new mexico's bill and bonnie hearne,i bought this cd to hear these new recordings.all the tracks are great.especially ely and duritz.if you have bought bill and bonnie's last cd on warners,then get this.unlike the last review,new mexico rain is a million times better with the harmonica.look out for sarah nicole too.

5 out of 5 stars He Don't Care About Me.......2000-04-16

I have listened to the I-10 Chronicles at least a dozen times and have realized why it is so great. 5 words, "He Don't Care About Me." I have loved the song for years, but never has it been sung and performed so well as by Sarah N. I hope we hear more from her and these musicians in the near future.
