Great start to a great career
The public was slow to catch on to Patty's talent but I wasn't. This album demonstrates Patty's ability to sing ballads and up-tempo songs equally well. The style is firmly rooted in traditional country although it has a contemporary edge.pYou may have heard some of the songs elsewhere, as they have been recorded by other singers. Dolly Parton included Slow healing heart on her White Limozeen album, while Vern Gosdin recorded it for his album, There is a season.pKaren Staley wrote three of the songs here and later recorded two of them (Wicked ways, Half over you) for her album, Fearless, ten years or so after Patty's versions first appeared. George Jones later included Half over you on his album, The rock. I cannot trace another version of the third Karen Staley song, Lonely days lonely nights, but it's a brilliant song.pJo-el Sonnier co-wrote and first recorded Blue is not a word, which George Strait covered for his album, Something special. Some blue moons ago is a Steve Earle song. You are everything was co-written by Guy Clark.pOf the other songs, Patty wrote two (I did, Sounds of loneliness) while After all is a real gem - it may be that somebody else has recorded it, but I don't remember hearing another version.pIf you enjoy Patty's other music, you will enjoy this album - if you can find it.
