Crazy Ex-Girlfriend
There's no sophomore slump for Miranda Lambert, who follows her chart-topping debut, Kerosene, with a knockout punch. Both the title cut and the album-opening "Gunpowder & Lead" ("what little girls are made of") show that Lambert hasn't lost her edge or her appetite for revenge. Yet the quieter "Desperation," the more tuneful and tender "Love Letters," the wistful "More Like Her," and the primally intense "Down" show her emotional range and maturity. While her songwriting remains a strength, Lambert also displays superb taste in other people's material, with "Dry Town" (by Gillian Welch), "Getting Ready" (a new song from Patty Griffin), and "Easy from Now On" (with the lyric that provided the title to Emmylou Harris's classic Quarter Moon in a Ten-Cent Town) reinforcing the musical quality. There isn't a throwaway cut here. --Don McLeese more

- A must for country lovers
I was a little skeptical about buying this CD but I had liked Miranda's radio hits so I bought it. I was delighted to find that all of her songs were worth listening to repeatedly. I especially like Dry Town, Deperation, Down, and...

- Who Knew : Miranda Lambert is the Future of Country Music
Let it be said that Miranda Lambert is the best artist to emerge from a 'reality show' on any station in any musical format. That this "Nashville Star" graduate had a great voice is a moot point, but few could have predicted that she...

- Not A Bad Followup to Kerosene
This is not a bad album, its got the very catchy Famous In A Smalltown which I have to admit has been a big favourite of mine. But unlike the first album it doesn't seem to flow as well. I do like the catchy Dry Town having experienced...

- Maybe, But Not Yet
At 24 years old, Miranda's tracks sound like a 14-year-old's. Kasey Chambers she ain't. Might be able to give a good delivery on a recording when she's 34 years old...but not yet.
