Tell Me Why - 5198

Amazon.com Wynonna's second solo album, from 1993, is certainly not her mother's country. She tries her hand at steamy Southern rock ("Let's Make a Baby King," "Rock Bottom"), pop-flavored ballads ("Is It Over Yet"--a bravura performance--and the duller "Only Love" and "I Just Drove By"), folk rock (the sweetly sung Karla Bonoff-penned title hit), Sheryl Crow-written pseudo-gospel ("Father Sun"), and a rock romp (Mary-Chapin Carpenter's anthemic "Girls with Guitars," complete with interpolated "Smoke on the Water" and "Sunshine of Your Love" mini-riffs). Everything but conventional country finds a place here, in fact. Intriguingly, the standout track just may be "That Was Yesterday," the brooding blues that mother Naomi wrote for her. --Ken Barnes Product description Wynonna's second solo album, from 1993, is certainly not her mother's country.
