"If you like Blues, Country and a little rock and roll in your world this is the album to get. WY really shows off her talent on this album. My favorite is the blues sounding Don't Work That Mojo....., next is the Love Stats Talkin, the mellow but uplifing The Other Side. Wynonna has really developed her talent and tells us a littlle of her challenges and triumps on this album. Great album!"

Wynonna Stands Alone

"Wynonna is doing the music she wants to do and if country radio won't play it then in my opinion they are at a loss. Granted this cd is a mix of country rock and blues Wynonna kicks serious butt on this cd my favorite is Don't Throw That Mojo on Me. She preformed it live at a show and just wowed the crowd. Expand your horizons and give this cd a chance you will be quite pleased with it"

Emotional Woman

"Wynonna sounds richer and fuller than ever, her voice and lyrics swelling with a newfound confidence. THE OTHER SIDE is solid evidence of Wynonna's willingness to explore the boundaries of country music; in "Don't You Throw That Mojo On Me," she is delightfully full of bravado, fiercely tackling the bluesy song. "We Can't Unmake Love" shows a soft, restrained Wynonna harmonizing beautifully with singer John Berry, and the ballad "Come Some Rainy Day" is a classic torch song brought to life by Wynonna's powerful, emotional vocals. Most emblematic of THE OTHER SIDE, however, are forceful, upbeat country songs such as "The Wyld Unknown," with its direct and unmistakably personal lyrics: "You don't want to cross my little mama/And you sure don't wanna mess with me/Cause there's a wild streak running down from the roots/To the top of my family tree.""
