Tera:

  Sheryl Crow
has been pretty straight-up with her image as well as her music.
...So, what is this double-edged sword?

I just have a problem w/the grammies.  They either seem long 
overdue or based solely on popularity.  

I like her, but just don't think she's at the point in her career 
where she should have her own "Storyteller" show along side of 
people like Johnny Cash/Willie Nelson and Ray Davies.  I think 
she's got a ways to go before she's in the same category as those 
people.  I think the "industry" thinks she's there though.  

Can't wait for her previously unreleased work from the "Victory 
Tour" to come out g

Sheryl Crow actually opened up for Dylan several years ago.  Steve 
Earle also opened for Dylan so if that counts as a stamp of 
approval, so be it.

Frankly, I think her winning the grammy a few years back was a 
doubled edged sword.  It launched her into superstardom, but may 
have hindered her development as an artist vs. a product.

Oh the sweet smell of success,
