Summary: Good teamwork
Comment: Wonderful. If you like Kasey Chambers solo you won't go wrong with this selection.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: One of those nice surprises...
Comment: I bought this CD because I had heard the song Jackson Hole and it had me hooked. That song, along with the title track, are two of the strongest pieces on here. You can hear influences in the rest of the music that might remind you of an EmmyLou Harris duet or other classic country, but it is fresh enough to stand on its own and I wouldn't really call it country. I think most people would be pleasingly surprised to make this purchase without knowing much about the history of the artists.

Summary: This Pairing is Great!
Comment: After hearing "Monkey on a Wire" on a Sirus FM channel, I knew I had to hear more from these two from Australia. Although I've not heard either one alone, the duo is pretty marvelous. The songs are bluegrass style, with some country inflections (that even I could tolerate even though I'm not a country music fan), the lyrics are a quite dark and melancholy, but the combination of the music, lyrics, and the voices make this CD definately worth the price! I'll be looking for more from them.

Summary: Casey Chambers Rattlin Bones
Comment: Kasey Chambers is one of my favorite alternative artists.
Her raspy little girl voice is between Concrete Blond and Joan Osbourne.
With a country flavor.
This particualar CD with Shane Nicholson's - is just a little too country for my tastes. It's my least favorite of her catalogue to date.
I'd recommend one her earlier efforts to anyone wanting to check out her sound ie: the Captain or Barricades & Brickwalls.

Summary: rattlin' bones
Comment: Although I'm a big Kasey Chambers fan I was hesitant to get this cd because I was not enthralled with her previous cd- Carnival. Rattlin' Bones is an almost complete turn around though. I guess I'd consider myself a contempory folk singer-songwriter fan and this was right up my alley. Some of the songs on this cd would be right in place on cds such as Songcatcher or Oh Brother Where Art Thou. I hear shades of Julie Miller and Gillian Welch in several of the songs. Bottom line - I love it!

Editorial Reviews:
|
2008 collaboration between Chambers, the beloved Australian singer/songwriter and her husband Shane Nicholson. Drawing on both their songwriting talents and unique voices, Rattlin' Bones heralds a return to the Alternative Country roots that first launched Kasey's stellar career. This is Chambers and Nicholson writing and performing heartfelt songs that speak with an undeniable honesty. Whilst giving a sizeable nod to Chambers' Country Music upbringings, Rattlin' Bones equally secures Nicholson's natural fit on the rootsy highway. 14 tracks. EMI. 2008.
