Their concerts of late often prove to not only be lackluster, but dated, as singer\/songwriter\/guitarists Amy Ray and Emily Saliers veer dangerously close to seeming more like relics than icons. Part of that stems from their reliance on familiar material, as if their writing has slowed to a trickle. Now comes more suggestion of that in Rarities, an album made up of leftovers, odds and ends, demos, other previously unreleased material, and contributions to side albums. The good news is that there is much here to enjoy, all of it wrapped in the Girls' trademark corduroy-and-silk harmonies. Their demo version of \"Ghost\" is fraught with fevered longing, a remix of \"Shed Your Skin\" delights with its swirling, hypnotic soundscape, and the cameos by Michael Stipe (\"I'll Give You My Skin\") and Ani DiFranco (\"Ramblin' Round\") resonate with artistry and star power. But the 18-song album bloats with less-than-sparkling cuts (for example, a cacophonous rendering of Vic Chesnutt's \"Free of Hope,\" two early and undistinguished songs from both Emily and Amy, and a techno-meets-country remix of \"Free in You\"). In the end, this is more a collector's disc than a window on the duo's \"rarest\" moments. --Alanna Nash\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0009MAOWS\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0009MAOWS.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Indigo Girls\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Audio cd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
