Free Music Notes for Taking The Long Way
Free Music Review: A rocking album --the Dixie Chicks Rock!!!!
Hit: 5 Stars
This is great music and their incredible musical talent speak for themselves. This album is full of pain, anger, redemption, hope and strength. 5 grammy nominations and the 9th best selling album of 2006 even with limited to almost non-existent airplay--nuff said! If you really want to see the incredible depths of their talent and musicianship, catch a live concert! These women are awesome!!!!!Free Music Review: What a statement on their comeback!
Hit: 5 Stars
Fantastic album! Nothing less than great songs from start to finish. Demonstrates the group's continued progress from country pop stars to polished contemporary artists. Truly a strong statement of their vision and maturity in the face of political attacks and country radio's abandonment of the group. That's okay--this album signals that they'd outgrown the limitations of country pop anyway.Free Music Review: Very good album
Hit: 4 Stars
The title track is fantastic as is Not Ready To Make nice but overall I preferred Wide Open Spaces and Top of the WorldFree Music Review: Disappointed
Hit: 2 Stars
This album was disappointing, not because of the material or performances, but because of the heavy hand of producer Rick Rubin, who decided the Dixie Chicks are really a pop act. Consequently, instead of the delicate acoustic subtleties of previous albums what you get is in-your-face, overcompressed and overly-bright with an annoyingly up-front snare that bangs without variation as if it were a sequenced sample.
Compare this with the classic "Wide Open Spaces", which is beautifully recorded and mastered and worthy of use as a reference for recording engineers. The contrast with "Long Way" is depressing.
