Editorial Reviews

A tribute to one of the premier female country artists of the 20th century surely seems a natural for contemporary country singers like Martina McBride, Terri Clark, and Lee Ann Womack. When you stop to recall that Patsy Cline was, in fact, most famous for bridging the gap between country and pop, the presence of Norah Jones, Natalie Cole, and Michelle Branch makes just as much sense. It's no shock that Jones and Diana Krall jazz it up in properly torchy fashion on "Why Can't He Be You" and "Crazy," respectively. But it's k.d. lang who pulls off a neat trick by stealing the show from them with a jazz-inflected treatment of "Leavin' on Your Mind." While most of the country girls on REMEMBERING PATSY CLINE keep things expectedly earthy, it's Martina McBride who takes it the furthest afield with her album-closing a cappella "Sweet Dreams (Of You)," where her voice is supported only by some complex, Take 6-style vocal harmonies.
