Free Music Notes for Ropin' the Wind

Free Music Review: Garth at his second-best! "No Fences" and this make a perfect pair.
Hit: 5 Stars

After the release of his best-selling album to date, Garth Brooks released his third album, entitled "Ropin the Wind" in September 1991. Like "No Fences," this album contains many standouts (and/or singles) that were all over pop/country radio in the early 1990's.

My personal favorite is "Rodeo," which is a song that I grew up listening to in the early '90's. There are also fine tunes like the honky-tonk showtune "Papa Loved Mama," the graceful "The River," the album's opener, "Against the Grain" and a cover of Billy Joel's "Shameless."

A great album to pick up after listening to 1990's country-rock classic, "No Fences."

Ropin' the Wind Poster

One artist...one decade...one hundred million albums sold! Garth Brooks remains the biggest Country artist of all-time. He harnessed the Country and Pop influences of has past and created a new kind of Country that appealed to different generations of fans and crossed over into the Pop market like no other artist before him. Garth Brooks changed the rules based on his talent alone. He became a worldwide superstar while remaining true to his humble roots, which added to his appeal. This is his 1991 album and features 'Against The Grain', 'Rodeo' and 'Burning Bridges'. Pearl.
Brooks's third album, 1991's Ropin' the Wind, found him distancing himself further from the new-traditionalist hat-pack. The album's centerpiece was an all-stops-out Southern-rock cover of Billy Joel's "Shameless." Another hit single, "Rodeo," boasted a slinky Creedence-style groove. Brooks's propensity for sentimental folk-pop clich?s surfaced on the ballads "What She's Doing Now" and "The River." But "We Bury the Hatchet" and "Papa Loved Mama" were tongue-in-cheek attempts at honky-tonk and truck-drivin' boogie. While Brooks subsequently has been criticized for putting a cowboy hat atop rock & roll and calling it country, these tracks sound more like vintage Ernest Tubb next to some of today's Nashville Pop-tarts. --Rick Mitchell
