Synopsis

Amazon.com
On There's More Where That Came From, multiple Grammy-winner Lee Ann Womack's got the controls of country's Wayback Machine set 30 years in the past. The album cover, a soft-focus portrait of the Texas-born singer along with a list of songs, recalls the days when elegant, emotive vocalists like Tammy Wynette, Lynn Anderson, and Tanya Tucker ruled the charts. Yet the real magic's in the traditional-sounding arrangements, colored by gently weeping steel guitar, piano, harmonica, and fiddle; unhurried tempos; and, of course, Womack's lightly sugared confection of a voice. She explores classic themes like cheating ("There's More Where That Came From") and marital collapse ("Painless"), and draws on her own experience for "Twenty Years and Two Husbands Ago." Womack does concede a bit to the present with the dirty guitars and big rhythm of "When You Get to Me." But just a bit, as she proves the enduring appeal of sweet and sad ballads sung from the heart, and bucks the flash that makes so much modern country go pop--and fizzle. --Ted Drozdowski

CD Reviews

Superb work!
K. Stuckey | Port Huron, MI USA | 02/15/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I picked up this CD the day it came out and have been playing it non-stop since, especially "One's a Couple", "Painless" and "Stubborn (Psalm 151)" because it is like they were written about me. I love Lee Ann's smoky vocals and return to more a 'traditional' country sound, like the song she wrote "Twenty Years and Two Husbands Ago", about those big plans but she took a different path and loves where she is at, and the hit "I May Hate Myself in the Morning" with the double fiddle sound is stellar. "Happiness" and "When You Get to Me" compliment each other and are well-placed sequentially. There is no filler material on this CD, it is bound to be on lots of 'Best of 2005' lists!"
Is Classic Country Making A Comeback?????

(4 out of 5 stars)

"First off this is an album that I totally judged the by the cover. As soon as I saw the albums cover my first thought was "wow she must be going for a retro feel with this album." I was right. The album does have a feel of what classic country is all about, something you don't hear on radio these days at all. The songs themselves all have a sound that I haven't heard in country music in many years. There are steel guitar and fiddles on this album!!!!!!!!!! The only downside to this album is that the songs all have the same feel to them, so after awhile they all sound alike, but they are good songs, so that's not such a bad thing. A note about the albums packaging, I'm a sucker for great album packaging, this album uses the retro feel thruout. The album's covers, front and back, both recall the albums from the late sixties, early seventies. Inside you will even see the vinyl version of the album, complete with the MCA label and paper sleeve. Just a small nitpick about the label though, the front and back have the look of the 60's and 70's yet the MCA label used is the 80's blue/rainbow,cloud label, instead of the original black/rainbow label. Again, just a nitpick on my part, doesn't take away from the album at all!! Hopefully if this album is a hit, others will take a cue and make real country music again!"
CMA's 2005 Album of the Year!!!! Need I say more.....

"Wow!!! I love all of Lee Ann Womack's previous albums, but this is one of her best works to date, if not her best. What a stellar collections of great country classics. This is how I rate every song on this album (from a 1-5 scale):



1) There's More Where That Came From- Excellent introduction to Lee Ann Womack's latest album... Great song, great lyrics... In the future I hope she keeps her promise and records more songs like the ones featured in this collection. (5 stars)



2) One's A Couple- I eventually liked this song, after several listens, since it took some time to get used to, since it's a different song than Lee Ann has previously done. (4 stars)



3) I May Hate Myself In The Morning- CMA's 2005 Single Record of the Year... Lee Ann Womack's comeback to country radio. This is great song, I love the fiddle solos playing. One of the best cheating songs I've heard in a while. (5 stars)



4) The Last Time- This song may be sad in itself, however it has such a great addicting melody with Lee Ann's sweet angelic voice. (5 stars)



5) He Oughta Know That By Now- Great second single for Lee Ann with a message that men should show come common courtesy and respect and loyalty to their wives or else the wives will leave their husbands. (5 stars)



6) Twenty Years And Two Husbands Ago- An autobiographical song for Lee Ann... one of the slower songs of the album, but it showcases her range and it is her newest single. I enjoyed her performance of it in the CMA awards this year. (5 stars)



7) Happiness- This song tells a story and Lee Ann talks about the road of finding happiness. (4 stars)



8) When You Get To Me- Another great song... Lee Ann Womack's sweet voice is mesmerizing in this one, especially in the chorus. (5 stars).



9) Painless- Neat song... she captures the emotion behind the lyrics and makes it feel very real through the great imagery in the song's lyrics such as "handed me a fist full of broken glass." (4 stars)



10) Only Thing About Heaven- An awesome uptempo song to change the pace of the other songs of this album. I've missed her uptempo songs a lot since "Feel Like I'm Forgetting Something" in her "I Hope You Dance" album. (5 stars)



11) Waiting For The Sun To Shine- Very neat and well sung slow ballad... I like the tag in this song like in Lee Ann's "Ashes By Now" song from her "I Hope You Dance" album. (5 stars)



12) Stubborn (Psalm 151)- OMG!!!! Not only is this the BEST song in There's More Where That Came From, it's the BEST song of Lee Ann Womacks's career!!!! I absolutely LOVE it! What an AMAZING spiritual song of faith this is. The lyrics are absolutely magical and it's a great gospel tune, which talks about the dominant stubborness that surrounds us in our everyday lives. Anybody can relate to this song. It's a great reminder that a "molecule of faith" is the cure of pride and jadedness. This song is worth the entire price of the cd alone. I listen to this song every night before I go to sleep. I hope Lee Ann releases it as a future single and I would love to watch this song skyrocket to the top of the Country Charts.(10 stars)



Hidden Bonus Track: "Someone I Used to Know"- Lee Ann gives us a refreshing cover version of Dolly Parton's and Porter Wagoner's duet song. Her version is a real angelic treat. (5 stars)



Overall, no country music fan's collection is not complete without Lee Ann Womack's "There's More Where That Came From." It deserved the honor of the 2005 CMA Award for Album of the Year."
