Album Review: The Wreckers - "Stand Still, Look Pretty" (2006)
Popster Michelle Branch introduces us to pal Jessica Harp and goes country on this enjoyable release from last year. Fans of artists like Keith Urban and Little Big Town who are looking for an alternative to the irritating, nasal tones of Natalie Maines will enjoy this album, which has a traditional Nashville sound with ever-so-slight traces of the California-esque harmonies that dominated AM radio in the '70s.
It's also a great record by which to stealthily introduce the richness of American country music to your dinner party guests.
Overall rating: 7.5/10

Hammer,
Usually your talking points are right on - except for your views on the guy currently running the USA but that’s another matter for another day. In this particular case you couldn't be more off base. Country music has always and will continue to suck - save for Kenny Rodgers, The Gambler is still one of the best songs ever written.
