Brandi Carlile - Cover Songs, Volume 6: 2019-2020

This is the sixth and final album in my series of Brandi Carlile's cover songs. If you've missed out on the earlier albums, it's not too late to join the party. ;) As I said with the earlier albums, you don't have to be a fan of her original material to enjoy her fantastic voice and excellent taste in cover versions.

This album follows the same patterns as the previous ones in this series. She mostly does a wide variety of classic songs, but there are a few obscurities included as well. This finishes with her version of "Hello in There" that he did on Stephen Colbert's late night talk show last month. As I explained in the first album in this series, seeing her do that on TV was how I got interested in doing this series.

In terms of sound quality, this is also similar to others in the series. Every single song is officially unreleased. The vast majority of them are from concert bootlegs. The sound on the first song, "She's Got You," is a bit iffy, but it gets better from there. I've included "I Will Always Love You" merely as a bonus track due to sound quality issues. But since it features a duet between Carlile and the song's author, Dolly Parton, who is also one of Carlile's musical heroes, I figured it merited at least bonus track status.

It's kind of cheating to include "Bring My Flowers Now," because Carlile had a hand in writing it. Apparently, it started as a song Tanya Tucker had been trying to finish for 30 years. Carlile produced Tucker's 2019 album "While I'm Livin'" and helped her finish it. But I'm including it here as a Tanya Tucker song, since Carlile hasn't officially recorded a version herself.
