Review

Q (12/92, p.117) - 3 Stars - Good - "...a further exploration of the connections between the Irish tradition and country music...a good time was clearly had by all..."
Uncut (8/02, p.100) - 3 out of 5 - "...The Chieftains are a treasure and every home should have at least one of their albums..."
Vox (12/92, p.91) - 7 - Good - "...The Chieftains have slowly but inexorably established themselves as benign statesmen in the popular music panoply. ANOTHER COUNTRY further confirms that status...they allow their honorary vocalists to enhance, rather than dominate the mood..."

ANOTHER COUNTRY is a blend of Irish music and American C&W. You don't have to be a musicologist to hear the similarities between American bluegrass and traditional Irish music, and ANOTHER COUNTRY may well be one of the Chieftains' best collaborative albums. So many great country artists are featured here that almost every song is a highlight.

The somber way Emmylou Harris sings "Nobody's Darlin' But Mine," or the enthusiasm of Willie Nelson's singing on "Goodnight Irene" may be the true high points of ANOTHER COUNTRY. However, great instrumental work by Bela Fleck, Jerry Douglas, and Chet Atkins definitely vies for second place. The album's finales, "Did You Ever Go A-Courtin'," and "Uncle Joe," feature first the Chieftains, then Ricky Skaggs on vocals, then Chet Atkins' country picking, then Bella Fleck's banjo work, and so on in a real barn burner that gives each great soloist a chance to shine.
