LeAnn Rimes Artist Snapshot:

She'd been wowing audiences with her uncannily adult voice for years, but in 1996, thirteen-year-old LeAnn Rimes turned the country world upside down with her Patsy Cline-soundalike "Blue." The young star, managed by her dad, was showered with accolades, including the Best New Artist Grammy. But as Nashville labels rushed to sign their own teen stars, Rimes was already moving in a pop direction. Her next three studio CDs were odd mixtures of new country, country classics and pop/rock covers, and she scored a string of pop hits from movie and TV soundtracks, including the massive "How Do I Live."

Review

Entertainment Weekly (11/5/99, p.81) - "...Rimes' wondrous voice keeps getting better....[she] cuts loose on the honky-tonkin' yodel-fest 'Lovesick Blues'....the fun is contagiously youthful..." - Rating: B-

Includes liner notes by LeAnn Rimes.

When Leann Rimes burst onto the country music scene as a full-fledged siren barely out of her teens, it was difficult to predict whether she'd have the staying power to last beyond her high school graduation. A few years later, this album featuring Rimes' versions of classic country tunes would make it evident that the young singer wasn't going anywhere but up. Despite the harsh words of detractors, she's far from the Britney Spears of country. Despite her years, Rimes possesses a truly remarkable voice and a style well beyond her years.

Despite the ostensible brashness of a '90s youngster taking on songs associated with Patsy Cline, Hank Williams, and other greats, Rimes displays enough chops to make for eminently convincing versions of such chestnuts as "Crazy" and "Lovesick Blues" (she packs a mean yodel, too). Traditionalists will be heartened to know that despite a touch of modern-sounding electric guitar, the arrangements echo the classic Nashville "countrypolitan" sound of decades bygone.
