Your Good Girl's Gonna Go Bad (CD)

An American original and a genuinely legendary queen of country music for decades, Tammy Wynette was a cultural icon from the first minute anybody heard her version of "Stand By Your Man" on the radio. Over the rest of her lengthy career, she triumphed over a genuine soap-opera of a private life (including the highly public crackup of her marriage to another living country legend, George Jones), racked up scores of country hits (including "D-I-V-O-R-C-E, and "Bedtime Story") and even wound up appearing on KLF singles and collaborating with Sting. The First Lady of country, for sure.

Producer: Billy Sherrill.

Reissue producer: Bob Irwin.

Includes original release liner notes.

Digitally remastered by Vic Anesini (Sony Music Studios, New York, New York).

On the surface, Tammy Wynette's 1967 debut album is a fairly typical country record of the time--its 10 songs are over in barely 25-and-a-half minutes, and fully half of the album consists of covers of that era's recent country hits. What makes YOUR GOOD GIRL'S GONNA GO BAD different is that Wynette's no-bull attitude (showcased on the hit singles "Apartment #9" and the title track, both included here) is already in full bloom, and her startlingly pure, heartbroken voice emerges fully mature. The covers are a wisely chosen lot, from Loretta Lynn's "Don't Come Home a Drinkin' (With Lovin' on Your Mind)" to Dolly Parton's early single "I Wound Easy (But I Heal Fast)." Billy Sherrill's production is considerably less overblown than it could sometimes be, keeping Wynette's voice and acoustic guitar at the center of all the songs, even when sweetened with strings and choral backing vocals.
