I would recommend this album to anyone, regardless of what sort of music they like.

Yes, it is country.

Yes, it is in no way hardcore.

Yes, you may have to listen to it alone.

But the positives:

Great, thoughtfelt, introspective lyrics (not typical Country do-diggle wiggle biggle shit). She does have two corny tracks on the CD, you'll be able to recognize them both.

Good voice, good music, etc.

I really think she shines on her slow songs.

I've always been into melodic, well-sung country music. You would really be surprised at the musical and especially the songwriting talent of country musicians - many, many a great pop, rock, or R&B song were country songs first.
