The Cowboy Junkies' Nomad series of albums is proving to be something of a gem. Three albums in, and Sing In My Meadow, the second release this year, features a set of electric bluesy material involving the kind of guitar jams that are an established part of the Junkies live performances. While a release of this nature may suggest an element of self-indulgence, the resulting album contains an all too brief eight songs which never stray too far beyond their own template. Key to them all is the scratchy grunge sound that the Junkies have deployed intermittently over the years, but here it is given free rein. The result is a duelling guitar sound that often recalls Neil Young and Crazy Horse.

The album is without doubt loud, if you are still wanting the Trinity session, this is not it. However, it's the sound of a band having fun subverting their image & sounding much as they do at some of their larger gigs.I have seen the band many times & in large(ish)venues like Shepherds Bush Empire with a large bar that never closes there is no market for the really quiet stuff. Throughout their career there have been loud songs even loud albums; 2001's Open is probably the most Rock, before this, but the quality of the songs remains high.The intent of the Nomad project was to make 4 very different albums.I like this a lot & would it as their best since 'One Soul now'It's a little different,

I don't often write reviews here but i felt i needed to add my two cents to Robbie Bee's negative review. Anyone who has followed the Cowboy Junkies through the years know that it's not their first entry into electric ground, they like to alternate the folk and the electric, not unlike Neil Young has always done. And I think Margo's voice is as great as always, not competing with the band but mixing with it instead. This album is a wonderful addition to their discography, though I agree that it wouldn't be one to start it with. Haunting slow country-rock evoking wide plains and endless desert roads. i can't wait for volume 4 of the series.

The Canadian band Cowboy Junkies have long been a favourite of mine, with their dreamy, country and folk influenced sound. This year, however, like Lucinda Williams, they turned up the volume and brought out an album, Sing in My Meadow, which sounds like something from the 1970s - a jam session of loud, pounding, distorted guitars, with Margo Timmins' vocals floating over the top. I suspect many of their usual fans won't like it, but I love it.

I have been following Cowboy Junkies since their first album, The Trinity Session, was released. I really love their music and sounds. They released several good albums which I have enjoyed, but to me, they could not exceed the quality of their first album.Sing In My Meadow: The Nomad Sessions - Vol.3 is the one which overcome their first album for the first time throughout their career.I really love this album.
