Some Hearts
: :No Description AvailableNo Track Information AvailableMedia Type: CDArtist: UNDERWOOD,CARRIETitle: SOME HEARTSStreet Release Date: 11/15/2005DomesticGenre: COUNTRY :Would American Idol winner Carrie Underwood have landed a major-label recording contract without winning the hugely popular television contest? Probably. The big-voiced Oklahoman has the pipes, the look, the pedigree, and, most important, the emotional resonance to sustain a professional career. As an investment in her future, her label eschewed the easy path in putting out an album to take advantage of her publicity, going for a name producer, Dann Huff (Keith Urban, Faith Hill, Lonestar), to ...

5th Gear
: :Like his friend Vince Gill, Brad Paisley has achieved the often-difficult feat of reconciling being an entertainer and world-class guitarist. He's proven that on four admirable albums, and 5th Gear follows in that vein. Certainly 'Ticks,' an airy, radio-friendly ditty, is not the true substance here. That comes with such superior fare as the insightful 'All I Wanted Was a Car' and 'Online,' a sly satire of people's Web facades. While his duet with Carrie Underwood ('Oh Love') is a bit cut and dried, Paisley ably handles 'Letter to Me,' 'It Did,' and ...

Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
: :There's no sophomore slump for Miranda Lambert, who follows her chart-topping debut, Kerosene, with a knockout punch. Both the title cut and the album-opening 'Gunpowder & Lead' ('what little girls are made of') show that Lambert hasn't lost her edge or her appetite for revenge. Yet the quieter 'Desperation,' the more tuneful and tender 'Love Letters,' the wistful 'More Like Her,' and the primally intense 'Down' show her emotional range and maturity. While her songwriting remains a strength, Lambert also displays superb taste in other people's material, with 'Dry Town' (by Gillian Welch), ...

Sleepless Nights
: :As always, Patty Loveless connects with listeners, singing about their joys and sorrows. Sleepless Nights is her newly recorded homage to the classic country hits of the '50s, '60s, and '70s. She personally selected each song, country classics first made popular by George Jones, Hank Locklin, Porter Wagoner, Webb Pierce, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris and Conway Twitty. Born and bred country, Patty's pure crooning on these favorites is yearning and melancholy, enhanced only by sparse accompaniment. The new sessions feature several legendary band members: guitarist Harold Bradley, who played on the original ...

That Lonesome Song
:Album Description:He could be basking in his songwriting accolades, but Jamey Johnson remains a restlessly creative maverick. Jamey is the co-writer of the CMA and ACM 2007 Song of the Year 'Give It Away,' recorded by George Strait. Trace Adkins, George Jones and Joe Nichols have also recorded his songs. But instead of sitting at home counting his royalty checks, Jamey Johnson recorded more than 40 songs during the past year. Not content with providing hits for others, the singer-songwriter has a powerful drive to sing, record and perform. 'Writing is not enough ...

Producer T Bone Burnett enlists the voices of Alison Krauss, Gillian Welch, Emmylou Harris, Ralph Stanley, and kindred spirits for performances of traditional material, in arrangements that are either a cappella or ...

Creedence Clearwater Revival
: :Popular but not hip, basic but not shallow, rooted but not retro, Creedence Clearwater Revival distinguished themselves in the late 1960s and early 1970s through these contradictions. This six-disc set is the definitive Creedence collection, offering superbly remastered versions of all of their studio and live albums and adding a disc's worth of pre-Creedence material. The ultimate blue-collar rock band, John Fogerty and CCR found success by wholly giving in to their fascination with the American South (despite hailing from Northern California) and exploring the turf that connected R&B and country--the same turf ...
