When Anita Cochran holds her red-and-white Telecaster on the cover of her debut album "Back to You" (Warner Bros.), it's no prop. The Michigan singer-songwriter not only plays all the lead-guitar parts on the disc, but she does so with a bright, biting tone and a fast, hard attack that reminds one of Don Rich's work with Buck Owens & the Buckaroos. Cochran isn't that good yet, but there's an energy and individual personality in her picking that carries over into her vocals. Her songwriting isn't as strong as her playing and singing--her sentimental ballads are especially cliché-ridden--but her uptempo numbers are irresistibly sassy. This is most obvious on "Girls Like Fast Cars," sort of a sequel to Wynonna's "Girls with Guitars." --Geoffrey Himes

5.0 out of 5 stars Anita Is Terrific!!, January 9, 1999

By	[e-mail] (California) - See all my reviews

Remember this girls name..It won't be long before she is racking up awards and gold albums, with this no doubt being her first. Not only does she have a voice to die for, Anita plays the guitar and has written several of the songs on this CD. She has a wide vocal range reminisant of such greats as Tammy Wynette, Barbara Mandrell and Wynonna. There is not one bad song on this CD..A few plays and you will be singing along and waiting anxiously for the next CD from Anita.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Rare Country Artist With Full Range of Skills, November 7, 1999

By A Customer

A great singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and performer who still really loves country. If the industry is looking for the future of the sound, it should quit all the pop prom queen nonsense and line up behind her blazing Telecaster!

I can't wait to hear more from Anita Cochran. I knew from hearing her at many of our Church revivals that Anita would make it someday. Way to go Anita! Keep the music coming, I'm looking forward to your next album.
