While Trisha Yearwood started out as a country diva with a strong connection to Nashville traditions, over the years she's strayed further and further from those country roots. The remarkable thing is that, as exemplified here, she's managed to open her music to other influences without going the Shania Twain lowest-common-denominator route. The arresting opening cut "Love Alone" incorporates hip-hop beats, rock guitar, and Beatles-like string arrangements, and that's all in one song. The title cut, on which Yearwood is joined by Don Henley, bears a distinct R&B undercurrent. Another duet, this time with Rosanne Cash, on Cash's old hit "Seven Year Ache," finds Yearwood paying homage to the progressive country scene from whence she came. For the faithful, there are several cuts that bear enough country feel to keep the singer welcome in Nashville, but ultimately its Yearwood's strong, distinctive voice, not any stylistic monomania, that provides the common thread through this disc.

Rolling Stone (7/5/01, p.146) - 4 out of 5 stars - "...The kind of recording God created NAshville for..." Entertainment Weekly (6/8/01, p.77) - "...She's the elegant engine of a Ferrari, accelerating to 90 in seconds flat..." - Rating: B Q (Summer/01, p.112) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Maddeningly catchy..."

Often hailed as Linda Ronstadt's successor, Trisha Yearwood became one of the 1990s' most respected and popular country music artists by virtue of her magnificent voice and her choice of intelligent, quality material. She has the distinction of being the first female country singer to reach Number One on the country charts with a debut single. A multiple Grammy-winner, the versatile Yearwood has duetted with the likes of Aaron Neville, Don Henley and Garth Brooks, and for a time was married to Mavericks bassist Robert Reynolds.
