Editorial Reviews :
The major-label debut from this Texas trio proves their instrumental abilities, blending more traditional twang with slow melodic blues, foot-tapping rockabilly, and bluegrass-inspired pop harmonies. From the opener, 'I Can Love You Better,' the Chicks let their love of music and genuine joy shine through while the energy on this album reminds one of Carlene Carter. Solid musicianship, topnotch vocal performances, and infectious pop hooks make this a stellar project.
Buyer Reviews :
The first song I heard from this album was 'Wide Open Spaces.' I immediately liked the harmony and sound of this song, but was a little hesitant to buy the album since The Dixie Chicks was a new group to me (they had been performing for years prior) and I didn't know if the other songs would be as pleasing.
Well, later I heard 'There's Your Trouble' and found the beat and melody very infectious indeed. So I decided to buy the CD on the merits of those two songs. Soon afterward, the hit, 'You Were Mine,' a beautiful and melancholy song about divorce was released. Following 'You Were Mine,' another country hit, 'Tonight the Heartache's on Me' was released. This tune is also very catchy and much more country sounding than the previous hits mentioned, but very good nonetheless. Then there's the more universally appealing hit, 'I Can Love You Better.' This is a fun and peppy tune I love too.
The Dixie Chicks' 'Wide Open Spaces' has become one of my favorites in my 1,000 CD collection. I have come to enjoy every song on the album. It's one of those handful of CDs in my collection that I can listen to from start to finish over and over again. I believe this CD will appeal to Country and Pop music lovers alike. The Dixie Chicks' follow-up album, 'Fly' is good, but I don't believe it has the same magic and cohesiveness that this album exhibits. Enthusiastically recommended!
