Fayssoux McLean was best known in music circles for providing harmonies on the first four Emmylou Harris solo albums. Journalist and musician Peter Cooper coaxed Fayssoux from retirement resulting in this sublime country album. McLean and Cooper combined her originals, traditional songs her grandma used to sing, and classics from well respected songwriters. Cooper, Lloyd Green, and Brandon Turner provide a gentle, aching country backing. Several old friends and admirers contribute, including former boss Harris but never overshadow the true star in this production, Fayssoux McLean. -- Jeff Weiss, Miles of Music (Red Beet)
