I Thought There Was More Where That Came From Posted: February 25th, 2008 at 10:49 am | By: Craig Shelburne If you've been waiting for new music from Lee Ann Womack, get comfortable because it's probably going to be a while. Last I heard, she wasn't happy with the album she turned in, so it was back to the drawing board. Luckily, I have never gotten tired of There's More Where That Came From, which won a CMA Award in 2005. But, as the title suggested, wasn't there supposed to be more where that came from? I do have a short-term fix - Some Things I Know, her outstanding 1998 album. Ten years ago, the shy Texan was riding a wave of high-profile endorsements from George Strait and Alan Jackson, and was considered a torchbearer for traditional country music. I love the fiddles on the title track, which begins the album, and when Vince Gill comes in on harmony, it's bliss. Buddy and Julie Miller contributed harmony vocals on a song they wrote, "Don't Tell Me," and it's one of the saddest songs they've written. (With their incredible catalog, that's saying something.) Joe Diffie, ex-husband Jason Sellers, Ricky Skaggs and Sharon White lend their voices to the album too. "I'll Think of a Reason Later" and "A Little Past Little Rock" did well at country radio, but after she scored a smash hit with "I Hope You Dance," she temporarily headed in a new direction. I liked the I Hope You Dance album, as well as "Blame It on Me" from the follow-up disc, but I really fell apart when I heard There's More Where That Came From for the first time. Seriously, I played it over and over at the office, and luckily my co-worker one desk over was just as obsessed as I was. We enthusiastically analyzed it inside out, and I still proudly display my vinyl copy above my desk. I can't wait to hear the new music, but at least I have a few albums to hold me over in the meantime. http://blog.cmt.com/2008-02-25/i-thought-t...m/#comment-6836 |

Thanks, Steve. It is good to have some info on what's happening. It's also good to know that the delay is due to something within the LAWs control, and wasn't shelved by the record label. And that they're giving her creative control over it and the time to make it right. It would be great either way, but it will be even better the more time she has to perfect it. Whenever I think about (or start to get frustrated about) how long it's taking for new music from Lee Ann, I think about how long it was for Pam Tillis to finally come out with Rhinestoned (about 3 years from when I first heard about it). That could not have been better. I'm sure we'll get the same from Lee Ann.
