Wow, what a class act. "Taken" is her best album yet, and should expose her to new folks around the world. Great songs, my favorite is "back On My Mind" If it`s not already, this version should make it a Bluegrass standard. I just saw Rhonda play at Roots in Nashville

This is sure to be released as a single proving that great old songs always come back around. Rhonda and the band have given an old Milsaps hit a fresh pair of legs, guaranteed to keep this classic back on blue grass fans minds! What a great cover of “Back On My Mind”!

Not as surprising as one would think. FWIW, Richard Marx has been a prominent song writer in the country field for about 10 years now. Not as surprising as one would think.

I am glad to say I was so wrong. This album has so many standout songs like "Taken," which may be the best ballad Rhonda has ever recorded. I am also in love with "In The Garden By The Fountain," but anything featuring Dolly Parton has to be wonderful. "A Little At A Time," "The Court of Love," "Tonight My Baby's Coming Home," and "Back On My Mind" are all wonderful as well. The only songs I don't care for at all are "When The Bloom Is Off The Rose" and "Song Of A Whippoorwill." Rhonda's daughters are just not up to the vocal abilities of their mother. I would also enjoy "You Must Have a Dream" if the children were left off of it, it would have been much more an enjoyable song without them.
