5.0 out of 5 stars
See My Face, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Wide Open Spaces/Fly (Audio CD)
What needs to be said about the Dixie Chicks and their first two albums with Natalie Maines as lead singer? Perhaps you, like myself, got interested in their music after Natalie's comment about George W. Bush. Or perhaps you made the mistake of throwing their CD's out to be crushed, only to realize three years later that they were right all along, and now wish you can be forgiven. It does not matter. Songs like Cowboy Take Me Away, Wide Open Spaces and Goodbye Earl are all time classics. If you paid no attention to these songs before, you have no idea what you are missing. You will enjoy them no matter how often you listen to them. There must be some new interest in the Dixie Chicks in Europe for them to re-release these two CD's in one package over there. But perhaps you should buy their newest CD Take the Long Way first (at least to understand the title of this review), then go to see the documentary Shut Up and Sing, and only then buy this set. Whatever. Enjoy these moments while you can. The people on the other side have so successfully ruined their careers for having expressing their views, I would be surprised if the Dixie Chicks will bother to come out with another CD and/or tour ever again. It is a shame.
