I was not expecting a Lucinda Williams disk so soon after 'West' was released. I didn't even know 'Little Honey' was coming until I stumbled across a review in a Sunday paper a few days prior to its release date.

Unlike many, I really liked 'West', save a few songs. I thought it had some unique elements for a Williams disk. It was supposedly her 'sad' album, as opposed to her 'angry' album or this one, which people are calling her 'happy' disk. Whatever.

Williams sings with such conviction on any of her releases, that I don't really go for the emotional labels people & reviewers insist putting on her.

But I will say - after a month or so of playing, this disk is not grabbing me. Not entirely. It has its moments, but all of her disks have moments ('World ... Read More

I had never heard of Ray LaMontagne before Amazon's recommendation engine pointed out to me that people frequently bought Martin Sexton's "Solo" along with "Gossip in the Grain." I'm a huge fan of Martin Sexton since about a year ago, and looking for more amazing folk/rock music to experience.

So I sampled a few tracks before downloading mp3s for "You are the Best Thing" and "Let It Be Me." Repeated playings of these tracks quickly lead to buying the rest. (And then regretting not buying the physical CD.) Love the whole album, listening to it many times the past couple of days, and now waiting eagerly for his first two albums to be delivered.

The songs really move me. Emotional, honest, real. Ray's voice is superb. "I Still Care For You" didn't click right away, but I ... Read More

If you have an ipod or any MP3 player, ALL I INTENDED TO BE is the second Emmylou Harris cd you should have! the first being THE VERY BEST OF EMMYLOU HARRIS!

If you listened to the samples without headphones, go back and listen again with headphones!!!

And for all you duds, and you dudetts, if your thinking of just buying downloads, it is worth buying the whole cd just to get the picture of Emmylou that's on the back cover!!!

Pretty disappointing with not a single remarkable song. After so many great albums over the years this is a miss rather than a hit.

There's no need to give this album an extensive review because it speaks for itself. Jenny Lewis can sing, play music, and also write creatively. Go out and buy this album. The recording is not too slick and it's not cheap sounding at all. Great albums like this remind me of the reasons why I DON'T listen to the radio.

If you are tired of the same old homogenized, formula music for the masses, you owe it to yourself to check out this superb double disc retrospective. Not a clunker here. My only quibble is that some of my Cooder favorites aren't here. Probably an issue with one of his labels. Otherwise, these are 2 discs you will never tire of!

I have long been a fan of Charlie Haden's jazz recordings. This recording is interesting and worth having, although I continue to prefer his jazz work.
