Top Ten Albums:
1. Mary Chapin Carpenter - The Dirt and the Stars

Considering Mary’s lack of fan base on Pulse I wasn’t expecting to see anyone else to have this album amongst their top ten most played of the month! Glad to be proven wrong, however. This is such a fantastic album and one that I plan on listening to more this fall/winter as I always tend to reach for her material more in the colder months of the year (I also just got my vinyl in and it’s a beauty!).

“All Broken Hearts Break Differently” is a standout as well as for myself, but “It’s Ok to Be Sad” seems to be amongst my favorites along with “Old D-35”. Mary’s ability to convey such emotion in her music is what really moves me and I”m so glad that I had the opportunity to see her live at least once.

i don't select the same standout as yours. Mine would be Between The Dirt And The Stars, Secret Keepers and Nocturne.

Nonetheless, I’m happy seeing someone else appreciate her music as much as me :)

The last several Bruce Sprinsteen's albums have been a mixture of both Americana and country. He is one of the artists that switch genres.
