All I Intended To Be

Country legend, Emmylou Harris follows up 'All The Roadrunning', (her 2006 collaboration with Dire Straits' Mark Knopfler), and 2007's hits and rarities collection 'Songbird', with 'All I Intended To Be'.

Mining the seam of indie and world-influenced folk she first began to explore in the 1990s, Harris continues to make some of the most proficient and bewitching music of her career. On 'All I Intended To Be' Harris has created a riveting emotional and spiritual journey.

On her twenty-fourth solo studio album, Emmylou Harris assembles an extraordinary cast of veteran musicians and fellow singers, all of them longtime friends, for a set that indeed showcases this Nashville icon, and 2008 CMA Hall of Fame inductee. Emmylou is a singularly expressive vocalist, a brilliant interpreter of other people's songs, a graceful and confident songwriter. In particular, the album displays Harris's ability to bring new life to songs that may have been overlooked, forgotten or lost along the way.
