Title: Gimmicky and Musically Weak
Product review: Chris Gaines or not,this album is a soft, "Ive-heard-it before", piece of hype.The strongest cut on the album is probably "Right Now", an amalgum of the Youngbloods' "Get Together", and Cheryl Wheeeler's "If It Were Up To Me".Yet,with heavy-handed artistic licence, Brooks significantly alters-or rather, butchers-the Wheeler original.By omiting the last line of the song:"If it were up to me Id take away the guns", Brooks dismisses entirely its essence.Wheeler wrote the song in response to the senseless Jonesboro killings of 1998.It is a powerful comment on our times.Listen to it on her album"Sylvia Hotel", and forget Chris Gaines
