Editorial Reviews:

After two records and a Grammy nomination, Tift Merritt took hiatus with a piano in Paris and came home with her best and most personal songs to date. Merritt describes the writing as a plainspoken look at the distance we all attempt to cross: between two people, between one heart and the rest of the world. Another Country Features special guests CHARLIE SEXTON and DOUG PETTIBONE

Summary: Tift"s Best, Another Country
Comment: The title above says it all. I discovered Tift via the "Tambourine"tour on Austin City, and have been in a fan of her music since. Without a doubt, this is her best work yet, although the previous 2 c/ds are also good. After having "Another Country" for over six months, I am far past the initial infatuation stage that sometimes comes with a good new release. This record/cd is exceptionally solid,AND, probably, my all-around favorite C/D for several years!(by anyone) A GREAT RECORD!! Thanks Tift,(and the band!)

Summary: Another outstanding effort by an exceptional artist
Comment: If Tift Merritt never records another album, I will still be happy. She has made three of the best soft country albums of all time. I will never get tired of listening to her lilting and deeply felt Southern vocals. Clearly she writes the tunes first because they flow just fine on their own but her voice, like that of an angel, adds meaning to the music that few female singers can match. After listening to her music for awhile, you feel you know here inside and out and you just know she is love-filled person just wanting to express it to the world. So much talent, so expressive and one of the all-time greats.

Summary: Awesome voice and great songs
Comment: I loved Bramble Rose so I was glad to get this new CD and I am not disappointed at all. In fact, I love this CD. Her voice shines on certain tracks, like Another Country and Broken, and delivers solid performances on I Know What I'm Looking for Now and Keep You Happy. Her lyrics have matured with her and are quite often moving and thought provoking. It's a great listen and I play it in the car each day. I don't care much for the french language song, but I'm sure it pays homage to her year in Paris and has a personal meaning for her. The rest of the songs are wonderful.

Summary: Very fine, indeed
Comment: Always heard good things about Tift; finally listened and agreed. Country, folk and rock are all here. I do think it a mistake, though, to make listeners go to her website to find her lyrics.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Best of the Year
Comment: This is an outstanding album, best I have heard this year. Gorgeous, restrained vocals; intelligent, sensitive lyrics; and a first rate backup band combine to make this a rare and rewarding musical experience. Outstanding audio quality as well. If you have not heard Tift Merrett before, this is an excellent, accessible intro; if you have, I think you will find this a major step forward in her musical evolution.
