…i quite enjoyed her first, gave the second a miss, but really look forward to this one after this (and some other) review.

perhaps, kellie pickler’s status is just perfect to produce country music, which doesn’t have to bow in front of the current market forces that have driven it way to far into the shallow end of pop market for my liking.

if it also works out for her commercially, great. she may be able to carve out a lovely little niche for herself and her music and fans will get
what some of them have been waiting for for quite a while now: more country in their mainstream country.

Haven’t had a chance to listen to the album yet, but this is a great review.

It’s a sad statement on the current state of the music business that an artist puts out their arguably best record to date and we are worried she has committed “career suicide”

Its quite risky for Kellie to make this move at this point in her career. In comparison Miranda is at the top of her game and a Pistol Annies side project doesn’t detract from her mainstream career in the slightest. For Kellie to go mostly traditional on a mainstream market release risks alienating her Idol days fan base.

I do plan on listening to this album and do wish her great success for being gutsy enough to stand her ground musically. If this turns out to be career suicide, at least Kellie did it with honor, style, and a lot of class.

I’ve generally enjoyed most of Pickler’s previous efforts for what they were, but not to the point of calling myself a fan. But I’ll be darned if this album doesn’t go a long way toward making me a Kellie Pickler fan.

I haven’t been a fan of Picklers ever, but this album is good. I am glad that this album lives up to her prior comments.

I’ve never been that much of a fan of Pickler. But this album is good. I’m always pleased when an artist exceeds my expectations.

Bought this album yesterday on the strengths of all of the reviews I’ve been reading. Looking forward to cracking it open.

Loved this review, C.M. It’s great to see Pickler putting more of herself into her music, and breaking out of the mainstream mold. And good point about the weakest links being Satcher songs.
