Amazon.com Over a decade of amiable and entertaining hits, Vince Gill has occasionally emitted flashes of greatness. On The Key, he finally opens up and taps his full artistic potential with a complete collection of stunningly powerful songs. Using spare instrumentation, and working amid a foundation of bluegrass and barroom country sounds, the recently divorced Gill concentrates on simply stated yet deeply felt songs about betrayal, loss, and the prospects of opening a bruised heart to another lover. Working with a variety of female harmony partners--including Patty Loveless, Alison Krauss, Shelby Lynne, and Sara Evans--Gill brings out the aching beauty of his tenor by settling into gorgeous melodies laid out with unadorned authority. By daring to bare his innermost feelings, he's achieved the greatness he's hinted at through the years. --Michael McCall Product description NEW Combo BLUWAVS CD and FLAC FILE Review Gill writes songs so winning that they would have fit perfectly into the classic repertoire of such country standouts as George Jones and Ray Price. And he sings them with a purity and conviction that matches those great artists' best moments. -- The Los Angeles Times This all-around splendid country album is testimony to Gill's ascension. -- People This redemptive album returns [Gill] to a traditional sound and to the heart of his talent. -- Entertainment Weekly Vince deserves some kind of award for this new CD: It's masterfully country without any smarty pants retro kitsch whatsoever. With The Key it's like Vince decided to single-handedly revive the long-lost heydays and sounds of Owen Bradley, Buck Owens, Ernest Tubb and George Jones. -- Country Music MagazineASIN: B000009QA8VSKU: GGV.B000009QA8.LNCondition: Like NewAuthor/Artist:Vince GillBinding: Audio CD
