I became a fan
of Patty's from her very first album, but it was this (third) album that
established her as a serious contender in country music. The album is
filled with excellent songs, demonstrating Patty's ability to sing ballads
and up-tempo songs equally effectively. Already revered in the music
business on the strength of her first two albums, Patty was able to secure
the services of Vince Gill, Rodney Crowell and bluegrass singer Claire
Lynch as backing vocalists on this album, with Vince appearing on five
tracks. The overall style is typical of the late eighties - more country
sounding that Patty's recordings of the mid-nineties but more pop sounding
than Mountain soul.
The album yielded several country hits including Chains, Don't toss us
away and Timber I'm fall falling in love. Blue side of town opens the
album in great style. Although the title may suggest a sad ballad, it is
in fact an up-tempo song about solving problems by have a few drinks. Next
comes another upbeat song, I won't gamble with your love, followed by a
couple of excellent ballads, Go on and If you think. The remainder of the
album is made up of the big hits plus several more wonderful songs.
If you enjoy country music of the late eighties, you should enjoy this
album.
