COVER GIRL was nominated for Best Contemporary Folk Album in the 37th Annual Grammy Awards.

It's a sure bet that if you enjoy Shawn Colvin's breathy, yet gymnastic vocals and like to listen to obscure folk-rock songs, COVER GIRL is the album for you. Shawn has recorded a dozen of her favorites--from the slickly produced version of The Police's "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic," to W.A. Ramsey's rare find, "Satin Sheets"--in a live acoustic setting.

Standouts include her dramatic interpretation of Greg Brown's "One Cool Remove" (with help from Mary-Chapin Carpenter) and Judee Sills' folk nugget, "There's A Rugged Road." She gives a deliberate, tempered reading of the Talking Heads' inventively wild "This Must be The Place," and an enthusiastic take on Dylan's classic "You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go." Also included are songs by Robbie Robertson, Steve Earle, Jimmy Webb and Tom Waits. Yet with all those heavyweight songwriters represented, the unlikely highlight is by a relative unknown, Roly Salley, whose "Killing The Blues" is incisively and starkly interpreted during a powerhouse performance from New York's Bottom Line.

COVER GIRL is not only a good listen, it is an interesting insight into the ingredients that created an artist like Colvin.
