5.0 out of 5 stars Refreshing talent, January 17, 2003

Tammy Cochran is unmistakably a country singer. The prominent steel guitar and her powerful voice are a combination that can't be matched, except maybe by the top-notch songwriting on this CD. The title song is a positive story of how sometimes reality can get in the way of your dreams, but you wouldn't change it for anything. It is one of my favorites, along with "All in How You Look at things" - about looking for the light at the end of the tunnel. "Love Won't Let Me" is about that someone that gives you butterflies, then "I'm Getting There" is her saying 'I'm over you...almost.' Tammy wonders about what might have been in "What Kind of Woman Would I Be". The most haunting song on the CD is "Dead of the Night".

Tammy Cochran sings of love, heartache and hope on her second CD and it absolutely blows me away each time I listen to it.

I'd never heard of Tammy Cochran until the new single Life Happened was on the radio. I didn't even know this was her second cd. The song Life Happened sold me on her incredible vocal talent right from the start. That song is amazing. It's one of the best "story" songs out there in country music now. Songs like this are what makes me listen to country music more and more. The words to the song really hook you in and hold you as you listen to find what the outcome will be. I can't imagine anyone loving country music and not being in love with the song Life Happened. If Tammy Wynette were alive today and still putting out cds i'm sure that she'd be singing music similar to Tammy Cochran's. Their vocal styles are remarkably similar if you listen closely. Tammy Whynette would be proud of this new and very talented artist. I wish her all the best in her career. She's gonna go far for sure. Her vocals have a lasting appeal, and many of her songs have a traditional country style to it that many of today's country artists are returning to. It's about time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cochran Does It Again, October 18, 2002

Though she scored a couple of moderate hits, Tammy Cochran's excellent self-titled debut for the most part flew under the commercial radar upon its' release last year. With any justice, LIFE HAPPENED will take an opposing commercial trajectory and establish Cochran as one of the strongest new singers on the Nashville scene. Those who've heard the first-rate title track will not be the least bit disappointed with the rest of the disc--though Cochran strikes a seamless balance between tradtional and contemporary, there's no doubt her powerful voice was forged in the same fire that seemed to encapsulate that other Tammy's instrument--just listening to the reprise of her first disc's 'If You Can' will make one think she's actually channelling Wynette's spirit. Without a doubt, the best album out of a mainstream country female artist this year.
