A little known (but great) country singer
Reviewer: Anonymous, January 20, 2006 Don't know why Karen Brooks seems to have faded from the music scene.... Walk On is a great album. I'll always remember playing it around town in Dallas when it first came out. If That's What You're Thinking to me is an absolute classic - Beautiful Song. Just wish I could locate it on CD.
Successful middle of the road blend
Reviewer: John Fitzgerald, Human resources staff database assistant May 15, 2001 Rick's got some heartfelt slide guitar on a great cover of Rodney Crowell's "Shame on the
moon" which of course was made famous by Bob Seger but this version is much better
and this album is worth buying for this song alone. The rest is a good mix of crossover
country with pop ballad stylings. Brooks reminds me somewhat of Jennifer Warnes in her
earlier incarnations but better. The opener, "Country girl" is a bit out of step as it's a real
knee slappin' hoe-down number but then the pace evens out and there's many songs on
here that will grow on you with some listens but as is the case with me, it will be pretty
hard to beat "Shame on the moon" as the best moment on the album. Looking back now,
this platter is probably ahead of it's time due to the influx of female country rockers these
days.
