Add your review here. Impressive all around Review written by John Fitzgerald, January 9th, 2005 Maybe because I expected this to be more country sounding than it was and it turned out to be an impressive mix for the most part, I really enjoyed this CD. Bekka can be heard well on the horn & piano driven Chuck Berry styled boogie "Katie wants a fast one" (duet with Garth Brooks) though this song is admittedly a lower point on the album, it has a certain charm that doesn't leave you hating it anyways. I was worried with the start as the fiddle vs. drum machine opener "High time" sounded like a forced "middle ground (musically)" piece but it does have a good hook to pull you through. There are some tunes I was less happy with like the fiddle/steel guitar led "I just do" as it can't seem to make up it's mind if it wants to be traditional country or 40's style schmaltz (and given the choice, I think I would've preferred it more heavy on the latter to help enhance the mix of styles on show here). "Make it look easy" was interesting for it's reminiscence of Billy Burnette's "Nothin' to do (And all night to do it)" musically speaking but it's watered down a little with the fiddles which is just not my thing but you may wish to investigate this one if it is yours. There isn't much else to complain about here really, the title track is a nice brushes and acoustic ballad, "Turn in the road" is a smooth moving ballad with an effective keyboard and slight strings moan. Though "Turn in the road" has a stronger hook, "Waiting in the wings" works better musically than "Turn in the road" with it's gentle piano, tasteful acoustic guitar and well placed strings. "I wish I were a train" is more homespun sounding but not overly so which is impressive, "Been there" (duet with Clint Black) is virtually upbeat pop with a good hook, it works well and reminds me of Bruce Hornsby's "Rainbow Cadillac" slightly. "Longer letter later" is a castanets featured acoustic strummer with a winning feel and the closing number "Bloodlines" is a real highlight, a Dire Straits sounding guitar instrumental duet with Wariner's son, Ryan, which works wonders for the album's styles mix with it's "wah wah" flourishes. There are some songs that seem more style than content like the contemporary Christian sound of "Blinded" but the virtual "wall of sound" technique on this track doesn't do much more than make it sound more uptempo than it really is and "It wouldn't be love" is a pleasant piano led ballad with clave rhythm this time but not as strong a hook as say, "Turn in the road" or "Waiting in the wings" but "Blinded" and IWBL are still both passable which looking back is an impressive tracklist with relatively minor quibbles to get in the way of recommendation.
