- They DESERVED the Grammy!
When I first heard that The Dixie Chicks' latest album, Taking the Long Way, had one the Grammy for Best Album of the Year, I just assumed that "the powers that be' were helping the Chicks lick the wounds inflicted by the rednecks at ClearChannel in reprisal for the Chicks' saying that Bush made them embarassed to be from Texas. I was wrong. This is clearly the best album of 2006 and perhaps the best album in years!

Great songs! You can't beat the wonderful artists Dixie Chicks. What a joy it is to listen to great musicians doing what they do best. Play and sing their hearts out.
Rating: - Country-Rock Hybrid Brings Outside Fans
I'm not a fan of country. My favorite bands range from art rock types like Television and Talk Talk to highly-produced indie pop like Of Montreal and Broken Social Scene.
This is not a country album, not really. The country twang appears once in a while, and the voices are certainly Texan. But the music itself in a style that is more rock - the production is superb. Lyrics are a huge improvement from other Dixie Chicks albums - very little sap in this record.
Much of this record is about the Bush-bashing incident, and surprisingly they are able to write thoughtful lyrics about the incident that don't seem contrived or over-dramatic. This isn't by any means a protest album, if anything it's a free speech album.
Artistically, musically, lyrically, this blows any prior Dixie Chicks album out of the water. Real country fans might prefer their popular debut, but for a rock fan like myself, nothing in the country vein satisfies the palate like this record.

- I like the music too!
In all honesty, I purchased this CD to support the Dixie Chicks' right to free speech and to help support such artists that are willing to get involved in social/political issues. And I ended up with a fabulous collection of well-written and talently-performed songs. Would purchase more Dixie Chicks just for the music! Something tells me though, that my original intent will still hold true for future Dixie Chicks offerings.
Rating: - These Chicks ROCK!!!
This album is absolutely amazing. Full of such heart and talent it becomes difficult to decide which track is the best. This album, their 4th, FOURTH!!!, brings the groups Grammy Total to 13 - that's AMAZING!! The well-deserved accolades are the icing on a cake that is made with courage, talent, tenacity, perseverance, and intelligence. Agree with their politics or not, this album, as with the other 3, contains songs that we can all relate to and enjoy.
