Sheryl Crow
Sheryl Crow has long reflected the musical passions that inspired her
back when she was growing up in Kennett, MO. From her debut “Tuesday
Night Music Club” (1994) to the self-titled “Sheryl Crow”
(1996) and “The Globe Sessions” (1998), Crow has continued
to explore her passions and define her distinctive voice, staking her
fertile turf as a singer-songwriter.
Sheryl’s breakthrough, “Tuesday Night Music Club”, took
almost a year to make an impact, despite being plugged by a succession
of marginally successful singles, including "Run, Baby, Run"
and "Leaving Las Vegas" (US Top 50). Believing that the album
was sliding irrevocably into the commercial shadow lands, Sheryl Crow
was about to begin recording its follow-up when A&M suggested releasing
"All I Wanna Do" on a "what do we have to lose?" basis.
The track subsequently became one of the major singles of 1994, reaching
number 2 in the USA and number 4 in the UK, and pushing the album into
multi-platinum status. "All I Wanna Do" is a surprising hit.
"Strong Enough" dealt with the strains placed on relationships
by PMS ("God, I feel like hell tonight… Are you strong enough
to be my man?"). Her earlier experience of maneuvering around rock's
casting couches inspired "What Can I Do For You" and "The
Na-Na Song."
In November 1994, Crow duetted with Mick Jagger on "Under My Thumb"
as the Stones played to 65,000 in Miami. The same year she had been one
of only two female acts to appear at Woodstock II, in front of 300,000.
In 1995, she opened for The Eagles at their massive comeback concerts,
as well as touring extensively both on her own account and with Joe Cocker.
Finding time to record a follow-up to "Tuesday Night Music Club"
proved difficult, but a new album was released at the end of 1996. Retaining
just enough of the spontaneity, courage and flair of its predecessor,
Sheryl Crow won a GRAMMY for Best Rock Album at the February 1997 awards.
Now with her latest shining gem, C'mon, C'mon, Crow has turned up the
volume and loosened the mood to make the direct rock & roll album
that made her want to make music in the first place. Crow explains that
she yearned to make an album "in the flavor of '70s and '80s classic
rock - rock songs that were crafted, that you could sing; songs that were
like the soundtrack to your summer - songs that were really committed
to rock." And so it was that Crow found herself with a kick-ass album
and no title to match. At the eleventh hour she speedily wrote and recorded
the song "C'mon, C'mon" - a standout, crunchy rocker featuring
Crow's longtime friend Stevie Nicks. "It just seemed to evoke the
feeling of the rest of the record," Crow explains.
