Pros: Genuine country music with a heart and some clever lyrics to boot. Cons: Sometimes annoying and cliche; sometimes superficial and morally bankrupt.
Authors Note: This write-off was conceived by a group of Music Advisors who were sadistic enough to foist off some of the stranger items in their CD collections onto other people, and the participants are all a bunch of masochists who...
Pros: Down to earth girls with appealing musical talent. Cons: Hole in my Head.
Even though I have lived in the South all of my life, I've never enjoyed country music. That is, until the Dixie Chicks came along. I discovered the Dixie Chicks quite by accident. As most of you know, MTV and VH-1 have a hard time squeezing in music...
Pros: Talent, emotion, good songs, meaningful lyrics, entertaining Cons: None
Being the music buff that I am, eventually curiosity got the best of me. Three women have taken the music industry by storm with their exciting sound, bluegrass roots and quirky personalities and I wanted to know why. Taking advantage of my vast amount...
Pros: Great "new" country sound. Wonderful voices and instrumentation... Cons: Tends to get a little too twangy...
All of a sudden I’ve found a love of country music. That’s a big move for me, as I used to be a big top 40 nut. But as I age, I find myself enjoying the entertainment value of country music. They’re still crying in their beer, they just ain’t whining...
Let me start off by stating that I am a BIG FAN of the DIXIE CHICKS. I was first introduced to their first album Wide Open Spaces and I immediately fell in love with it. I can relate so much to the music they sing and write about....
Pros: WONDERFUL music, beat, the songs, EVERYTHING :) Cons: ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I love all sorts of music and Rock and Country are two of my most favorites out there (my family still wonders where I get my kick for country though LOL). I grew up listening to mostly rock and roll (the good classic stuff), with my father but when I...
Pros: Everything great talent here Cons: Hello Mr Heartbreak
WINNER of the 1999 Grammy Award for "Best Country Album", "Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal" The Dixie Chick’s Fly is an outstanding follow up to their record breaking album Wide Open Spaces.
Pros: Chicks' wide influences: from bluegrass to country to 70s rock Cons: Some of the material was too hot for country radio to handle
Even after they had gotten Natalie Maines on as their lead singer in 1995, when they released their album WIDE OPEN SPACES to massive sales in 1998, there were those cynics, in both country and rock circles, who thought that the Dixie Chicks were little...
Pros: Solid.Contemporary.Sing-a-longable! Cons: Can get boring after the first 100 plays!
.After relistening to all my favourites from the 70`s and 80`s,my son introduced me to modern country music.I have always enjoyed some country and western but have never considered myself a big enough fan to actually acquire my own collection until that...
Pros: Really fun music Cons: some violence in one song
Dixie Chicks are flying high with this one. They have certainly made a stir in Nashville. Their the type of band that you either love or hate and I love them. Now I say that because they have a very distinct sound and if you don't like that type of...
Pros: These girls play their instruments with fervor and zeal, Songs like Cold Day in July and Cowboy Take Me Away are both throwbacks to an older sound -- and the future of Country music. Cons: A bit too much rock and roll flavor intrudes into the more solid traditional sound
Even if the sounds of "young country" aren't your bag, it's hard to deny the charisma and talent of The Dixie Chicks. Sure, most country purists and bluegrass aficionados will point out that these women had a true and gorgeous sound going for...
Pros: more real country music from the lovely trio, more maturity than in the first album Cons: "Ready to Run," "Hole in My Head"
One of the hottest performers in country music today, the Dixie Chicks are known for two things: their rock star sense of fashion and their love for traditional country music. Natalie Maines, Martie Seidel, and Emily Robison have graced Nashville with...
Pros: Good music (violin, banjo, and steel lap) Cons: Bad song writing and arrangement
After listening to Dixie Chicks newest release Fly all I could manage was a head scratch and a dumbfounded “huh!” The CD presented the sort of rambling mess I would expect from a freshman offering, not a sophomore follow-up to smash hit the...
Pros: great variety of songs, a lot of laughter and some sorrow Cons: I didn't discover it sooner!, a few 'not so hot' songs
As I dragged myself out to my car this morning to face another day of Southern California traffic, I was honestly dreading the day to come. All I wanted to do this morning was to pull the comforter over my head and tell work that I'd died and I'd see...
Pros: Easy to listen to - wide range of emotions Cons: "Goodbye Earl" not the greatest song for kids to hear (though I love it!)
I want to hate the Dixie Chicks, but I can't. They're just too darn cute. Add to this the fact that they are actually talented and this explains their success. These girls are definitely NOT fly-by-night artists. They are gifted songwriters,...
