Guide Review - LeAnn Rimes - Blue

For LeAnn's debut album, she shows us that she truly can sing country music as pure as it comes. The title cut on the album, "Blue," sounds hauntingly like the late Patsy Cline. LeAnn has an amazingly pure voice and this song took radio by storm. The teenager was an instant favorite and was thrown into the limelight as we waited to find out what else she could do.

"One Way Ticket" was just as amazing. All the songs on this album are very much traditional country. Most are love songs with a ballad feel to them. One of my favorite songs on this album was "Cattle Call," which is a classic Eddy Arnold song. So who better then Eddy to lend his voice to LeAnn for a duet recording. It turned out very nicely. Also on this album is another popular single, "The Light In Your Eyes."

Overall, this is a wonderful album to listen too. It helps you to relax and the music just seems to flow out of the speakers. It is a great addition to a country album collection, no "poptry" surprises here.
