Lee Ann Womack - Greatest Hits
Album Review by: Cheryl Harvey Hill, Sr. Editor
The evolution of Lee Ann Womack over the past several years has been a most fascinating and delectable metamorphosis to witness. The first time I saw her in concert, "Never Again, Again" had just hit radio and she was opening for Clay Walker at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Like everyone else, who was seeing her for the first time, I was astonished that such a powerful voice was coming from this very petite, and extremely shy, little brunette. The next time I saw her, she had won so many awards that I had lost track and her debut album had gone platinum - which ironically, now matched her hair. The confidence level of the diminutive and demure brunette was clearly reflected in her new stature as a charismatic, confident blonde and her musical acuity was equally refined and beautiful.
Womack's Greatest Hits contains fourteen super songs - seven top ten singles (including four that made it to number one), her duet with Willie Nelson ("Mendocino County Line") and two brand new songs. One of the new songs, "The Wrong Girl," is already making a move up the charts. In addition to the great music, the CD insert offers up a visual bonus with some cool photos from Womack's personal scrapbook.
There isn't much I can say about her illustrious career that hasn't already been said. Womack has solidly carved her own niche in country music and, with her dynamic and soulful hit "I Hope You Dance," she made an equally impressive mark on pop radio. The little girl with the big voice has made quite a name for herself and has reached a place where she can relax and enjoy the perks of her hard-earned fame. When asked about her career these days, Womack replies, "I'm having a lot more fun. I'm writing a lot more. I'm playing piano and guitar again." Sounds to me like another Greatest Hits is already in the works.
