Trouble with the Truth

Editorial reviews

From Amazon.com
Patty Loveless has always had an attractive voice, able to turn pretty melodies into hits, but only in the past few years has she acquired the emotional depth of country's greatest singers. That maturity sets the stage for IThe Trouble with the Truth/I. Her husband, former Emmylou Harris bassist Emory Gordy Jr., is the producer, and he keeps the arrangements lean so his wife's stronger, more open voice has room to maneuver. The couple has selected smart, tuneful songs about troubled adult relationships by Jim Lauderdale, Matraca Berg, Gary Nicholson, and Richard Thompson, and Loveless expertly juggles the mixed feelings that accompany so many broken hearts. I--Geoffrey Himes/I

Traditional/Contemporary Country At It's Best!!!
This is one of Patty's more successful albums and it's easy to see why. br /Included are the big hits Lonely Too Long,A Thousand Times A Day,You Can Feel Bad and She Drew A Broken Heart-the last 2 are excellent uptempos. br /There's also the beautiful ballad To Feel That Way At All,you'll fall in love with this one. br /Patty always picks songs with lots of depth and emotion.And she sings them like a country angel!This is a must to any country collection...

An important album in Patty's career
This is one of Patty's most successful albums - deservedly so. It spawned six country hits, which is amazing for a ten-track album. Despite all these hits, only two made it on to her hits collection, Classics, which I reviewed a long time ago.pTear stained letter is an up-tempo song that this should get your toes tapping. Trouble with the truth is about wrestling with conscience. Lonely too long is a lovely ballad about two people at what might be the beginning of a relationship. You can feel bad is a feisty, up-tempo song in which Patty pours scorn on an ex-partner. A thousand times a day (previously recorded by George Jones on his album, High-tech redneck) is about the difficulty of forgetting an ex-partner. She drew a broken heart, another song about a former relationship, completes the hits.pOf the four non-hits, there are two ballads reminiscing about the past (I miss who I was with you, To feel that way at all), a wonderful, upbeat song (Everybody's equal in the eyes of love) and a brilliant ballad in which Patty dreams of a bright future (Someday I will lead the parade). Any of these four would have made good choices for singles, demonstrating just how strong this album is.pThis is a classic album that helped Patty to win CMA female vocalist of the year in 1996. If you enjoy contemporary country, nineties style, you'll love this - it is one of the best examples of this type of music.

superb album
This was the first Patty Loveless album I owned ,and I LOVED IT. All the songs are sung with real feeling and you could almost believe she was singing about herself(maybe she was!)The truly excellant "I miss who I was with you" is for me the standout track,but all the tracks are truly surperb,an album you will want to listen to over and over.
