Title: Texas' new sound NOT for fans of SOUTHSIDE or RICKS ROAD
Review: Only the latter tracks on The Hush are vaguely reminiscient of Texas' best work (White on Blond & Southside). In HUSH, Texas has opted for a lighter ABBA/DIANA ROSS/TLC fusion/pop sound that underscores every track. If you liked White on Blonde and/or Southside, be warned ... this is a major shift in sound. Gone is the textured sophistication that drove Texas' best work ... Sharlene seems to have fallen in love with falsetto singing ... Her voice, while incredible, gets tiresome when she sings falsetto over the entire CD. This cd should appeal to young teengage girls... can't see much appeal to the male audience.
