Yes, it was recently released. It's pretty good. I still like her first CD best but I like this one better than her last one. Perhaps given a few more listens I'll like this one best, time will tell.
I just really like her voice.

She's okay but I just wish she'd sort of, I don't know, write something really upbeat and fast...the radio hits are good, and she is talented, but I just find it a bit boring sometimes.

>>Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris - Real live roadrunning (w/DVD)<<

Is this any good? I haven't heard the studio album yet, but I'm a MK fan.

Also, picked up a JJ Cale "best of"...some understated but beautiful guitar work there.

Very good. I'm a huge Knopfler fan. Probably my favorite musician. I saw the tour when it came to town recently and it was excellent. The CD (the live one) doesn't have all the tracks I would have put on it but the DVD is really good. I couldn't find just the DVD so I bought the combo to get it. There's a google video of the DVD right now.

edit: looks like you can scan through too, you don't have to wait for it to load (way to go google)

The regular Roadrunning CD is good too. More of a pop country type feel to it.

i don't buy CD's all that often anymore but I just ordered the latest from the winterpills.

they are very awesome.  I found them on myspace over a year ago because i was in highschool jazz band with one of the guitar players.... anyway, their getting big (and national) and their second album rocks (in a folky-rock kind of way).

listen to the whole thing here: http://www.fanaticpromotion.com/ecards/winterpills

It's one of the better Floyd albums, somewhere between Meddle and Wish You Were Here in terms of style, some naff lyrics, but the music is first-rate.

Hmmm. My least favourite, mainly because of what it represents...
