Wrong songs shown in original for sale listing Jan 11, 2009 on the site where Interiors CD is listed for sale they show the track listing and it is 100% wrong. None of these songs are on the Interiors CD. I find now that music listed is on Kings Record Shop.
I was very happy with the handling and shipping time but not with the product as it was not correctly represented.

So Dangerously Real Jun 25, 2008 I got on a new kick the other day and it's called the Rosanne Cash Blues, I am loving every thing I get my hands on when it comes to this woman.
First, her new album is excellant (see past review) and I found this little gem of an album which is produced and co-written by Rosanne and tells in 10 little songs the disinegration, the rebirth, the doubt, the pain and trials of a relationship falling apart.
Starting out with the upbeat sounding "On The Inside" Rosanne taps into the belief that she and her lover have suffered and excelled on the inside and things will be fine, while in later songs that same (?) relationship is in the thwarts of tearing everyone apart and these are the songs I really like (go figure), the high tension of "Dance With The Tiger" and "Mirror Image";
The most terrifying and high tension songs come from a pair of acoustic styled ditties "This World" makes me want to bawl every time I hear it - "Read about this baby / she got beat up by her dad/ she was 9 months old and he was a full grown man/ she may have been learning how to crawl/ and he hit a face in her face/ doctor said this baby's gone / she can't be replaced.." and the chorus "Now you read a lot of things in the daily news/ but I'm laying awake at nights wonderin' what to do/ I pray the Lord her soul to keep/ cause all down here are fast asleep/ but this baby belongs to me and you..."
The closing track with only a piano and violin accompanying her in a waltz, "Paralyzed" lays more at the ears of the listener than anything someone like Sarah McLachlin could dream of giving us - "Paralyzed" lets us right into Rosanne's real life as she picks up the telephone and hears the conversation between her husband and his lover; she is left paralyzed but not sure - "A life time between us just burned down the wire", "footsteps beside me/ phone in my hand/ I can't move/ I can't stand"..
Interiors is truly a treasure trove of inner feelings and something everyone should hear; just as long as you can handle it - due to the intense lasting feeling that you just spied on Rosanne Cash at home.

Most Fine May 28, 2006 This is a raw and fine masterpiece. Sometimes it is hard to listen to because it is painful - that's where the raw part comes in. Every aspect of this album is excellent. I can't say enough about it. Just listen for yourself.
The songs as listed on this page are for King's Record Shop. Look at the other Interiors listing for the correct song list.
Her finest work Apr 23, 2006 After becoming a Rosanne Cash earlier this year due to her new album, I decided to purchase all of her earlier work and I was completely blown away. I can't say she's ever released a bad album and "Interiors" is arguably her finest work to date. It's sparingly produced, full of passionate vocals and amazing lyrics. It's just a shame Rosanne's career after "King's Record Shop" has been largely ignored and undiscovered.
GREAT Reissue Apr 22, 2006 Seemingly off-course by Cash's previous efforts and the only disk that is written and produced almost entirely by herself. Abandonment becomes the theme of the music and the record in general.
Musically the material is or could be based on the failure of Cash's marriage, but just as much is in regards to the failure of her parent's marriage decades earlier. The songs are bleak ("This World", "Dance w/the Tiger"), to the point ("Paralyzed", "Mirror Image") and microscopically hopeful ("I Want A Cure", "What We Really Want").
'Interiors' is also the most consistent album Cash has ever recorded and probably speaks to her true artistry than anything she's done. It's a shame she hasn't taken the helm of more her albums. Cash has captured her own songs better than anyone who has produced her previously.
Sony completely abandoned marketing of 'Interiors' when they realized it wouldn't produce four #1 hits like her previous disk and it failed to fall into any category. Nashville pretty much abandoned Cash too - but their loss was the gain for anyone who found this recording.
The quality of the remaster is superior to the original release. As for extras, this remaster didn't really need them - but we got them. I'm a huge fan of the two deleted tracks, Cash's own "Portrait" and a cover of World Party's "All Come True" - and have enjoyed them for years, but now that they are in sequence and that I'm used to this disk for the last 15 years, they seem out of place. They are still great tracks.
The two live cuts are great. Pristine and understated recordings. Very nice touch. It's not the easiest disk to listen to - but one I have enjoyed over the years and one I recommend whole heartedly.
The remaster is now copywrite protected, but I had no issue playing it my car, my laptop, ripping it to iTunes or loading to my iPod. I also had no issue w/the first reissue of the flawed Sony disk.
