Summary: Second album still mainly country 2004-03-10
Comment: Following her debut album, Sunrise, came this album - still primarily country but offering hints of what was to come, with other influences beginning to show, especially on the covers.

I'll lie my myself to sleep, Don't mind if I do, Things are tough all over, Dog day afternoon, Baby's gone blues, Till a better memory comes along and What about the love we made are all ballads, which sound wonderful when sung by Shelby in her bluesy voice - and they all sound country. As far as I know, they are all originals.

The three covers provide a contrast with the original songs. Lonely weekends is a song from Charlie Rich's rock'n'roll days, which Shelby performs superbly. I walk the line is the Johnny Cash classic, here given a bluesy treatment. The closing track is a distinctive cover of Duke Ellington's jazz classic, Don't get around much anymore.

This is not quite as country as Sunrise, but if you don't like country music, you probably won't like this. However, if you like contemporary country music with a bluesy edge and even a touch of jazz, this is an outstanding album. Like all her early albums, it didn't sell well because Shelby didn't do what was required to encourage airplay.
