  • Detours is the sixth studio album from pop/rock singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow. Detours notably marked the return of producer Bill Bottrell, who Crow hadn't collaborated with in over a decade. Bottrell, who had worked with Madonna, Michael Jackson and Elton John in previous years, also produced Crow's debut Tuesday Night Music Club in 1993.

    With him overseeing the Detours, critics hailed the album as Crow's return to the sound that made her popular years before.

    The album also features a song Crow wrote for the 2007 film Grace Is Gone, "Lullaby For Wyatt."
