Before they were cancelled by the good folks who love to complain about cancelling…The (then) Dixie Chicks replaced lead singer Laura Lynch with Natalie Maines and hit paydirt with their fourth album, Wide Open Spaces. The talent of instrumentalists (and backup singers) Emily Strayler and Martie Seidel had never been in question, but it was the addition of Maines that made the difference. With a powerful and perfect country voice in the fold, The Chicks were suddenly a force to be reckoned with. This rollicking set of songs is mostly well chosen, and without exception well played and sung. The Chicks became stars here, and they became one hell of a fun group to listen to. And Natalie Maines became the star of the show without it going to her head.
Wide Open Spaces boasts five hit singles, and a whole lot more. “I Can Love You Better”, “Wide Open Spaces” and “There’s Your Trouble” are all great, but don’t sleep on the rest here. Particularly the last three songs, none of which were hits, but which were written by the likes of J.D. Souther, Maria McKee and Bonnie Raitt. Raitt's closing track, “Give It Up Or Let Me Go” finds the group, but especially Maines, cutting as loose as one can cut, and it’s a perfect way to end the album. They serve notice that the Chicks were setting course for a voyage of hits and great albums, and they did not disappoint. This is where the momentum started, where the Chicks found their footing, and where they finally found their leading voice. A great and fun album. [First added to this chart: 03/26/2025]
