The B+ really means a lot coming from you, Razor. I haven’t had a chance to digest this album yet, but I’m really looking forward to doing so now.
I remember picking up her second album when it came out and thinking no one could make an album this bad. On purpose. For a major label. I liked the singles, but the rest was garbage. Winning DWTS was the best thing that could’ve happened to her because it’s gone a long towards rehabbing her dumb blonde image. It was fake to begin with and now she seems to have left it in the past. Thank goodness.
It also says a lot that Kellie’s on her fourth album, especially in this climate when her limited radio and commercial success usually means a kick out the door (of Nashville, not just major labels). This is even more significant when you think about how many American Idol country singers were given the boot on their second single. Kellie’s been allowed to stick around and find her voice and we have these last two albums of hers as a result. I wish all talented newcomers were given the same chance.
Perhaps a small step backward from 100 Proof, but still a very solid album. My favorite tracks are “Ring for Sale” and “Tough All Over.”
