Jewel

Jewel raised the bar for these live acoustic sessions. Sounding warm and inviting, her naked, oh-so-expressive versions of "Again and Again" and the sly charmer "Stephenville, TX" cast the songs in a new (somber, open-hearted) light; the glossier versions on Goodbye Alice pale in comparison. The transformation is breathtaking and serves as a heartfelt reminder of why we fell in love with Jewel in the first place.
