But when Stewart had an impulse to go to Nashville and make a record, he quickly rounded up some local aces and cut these rootsy tracks in five days, writing most of them along the way. Bob Dylan gets co-writing credit on the neo-soul \u201cWorth the Waiting For,\u201d but not on \u201cThe Gypsy Girl and Me,\u201d whose words are arguably more Dylan-esque. Special guest Nicks and Stewart sound positively cozy on the country ballad \u201cCheaper Than Free,\u201d but she\u2019s nowhere to be found on the worshipful \u201cStevie Baby.\u201d That would just be weird. \u2013Jeff Tamarkin<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAVE STEWART The Blackbird Diaries [Surfdog\/Weapons of Mass Entertainment] You have to wonder how Dave Stewart found time to make a new solo album.
