Trisha Yearwood, like her better half in the Mavericks, is becoming more and more country-pop (and less pop-country) with each release. Her latest leads her further down the road into 1970s Linda Rondstadt territory than ever before. It's a land where great pipes and stellar playing are frequently put to the service of treacly ballads and anemic rockers but also a destination guaranteed to provide at least a couple of stunning moments. "There Goes My Baby," about a woman who didn't know how good she had it, is twangy, unpretentious pop, rock-solid and catchy as all get out, and the steel-guitar-driven, Cali country-rock of "Bring Me All Your Lovin'" is as sonically stunning a moment as Nashville's produced in years. --David Cantwell

scribbled on my heart.......2007-06-18
Trisha Yearwood has one of the big, bad female voices on the country scene. Better yet, she can work it in a full menu of directions.
'Easy' and 'sad' mark the rhythm and the tone, respectively, of the album's opening track. 'There Goes my Baby' is a classic country lament of lost love:
'There goes my baby, like the sun fallin' out of the clear blue sky.' It may be conventional, but it's so good under Yearwood's stewardship. A bit of self-loathing colors the edges: 'Maybe this empty heart is all that I deserve / What kind of fool / Finds a perfect jewel and can't see how it shines / Til she's alone and cryin'.
Yes, it's good. But it's only a teaser to some even better tracks on this showcase album.
For example, love lost on track one is recovered on track two, the oh-so-easy 'Never Let You Go Again'. And the self-loathing of track one turns to steely self-confidence in the face of an unfaithful lover in the jaunty 'This Town Has Eyes'.
The first peak of this CD's multiple-peaked range comes with 'Love Wouldn't Lie to Me', a plaintive articulation of love's disingenuous possibilities. Here Yearwood's voice is full of injured strength, beautiful, seductive in its pain. Rarely do the edges of sanity shine so golden.
From there the CD rolls on it soulish way with hardly a moment that is less than superb.
You could conclude that Trisha Yearwood is to country music what Diana Krall is to jazz and not end up too far off the mark. There is a unhurried lushness in the voice of each of these women and a strength that exudes even from the most wounded lyrics.
Yearwood aims high with WHERE YOUR ROAD LEADS. Better yet, she hits her target.
Where Your Road Leads.......2005-07-28
I particularly like this song, but the album as a whole is terrific. I would recommend this album to people who really love to hear Trisha Yearwood sing, she has a great voice.
Typically classy album from Trisha.......2005-07-02
Of all the contemporary country singers to emerge in the nineties, Trisha was (and remains) my favorite although not by much. This album is typical, containing many great songs from some of the finest songwriters around (Annie Roboff, Jamie O'Hara, Al Anderson, Don Schlitz, Mark D Sanders, Dianne Warren, Carole King, Allison Moorer, Victoria Shaw and J D Souther among them), yet requiring several plays to really be appreciated. Many of the songs are ballads but there are some faster songs to provide variation. Trisha is always careful to select songs that mean something to her. I sense from the lyrics that her personal life was difficult at the time she recorded these songs.
The album opens with There goes my baby, a reflective ballad about a former lover. Maybe the second track, Never let you go again, is a sequel as it is about getting a second chance. Net comes a song about cheating, That ain't the way I heard it. Powerful thing (an up-tempo song about love) was a country top ten hit. After this comes a superb ballsd, Love wouldn't lie to me, but it did. As if to prove that love lies the next song, Wouldn't any woman, is about the end of a relationship. In contrast, I'll still love you more finds Trisha deeply in love. Heart like a sad song is about a woman (not Trisha) who cannot find lasting love whatever she tries. I don't want to be the one is about a relationship that is in difficulties. Bring me all your loving (the Allison Moorer song) is about missing somebody and wanting his love, not flowers. Allison's own version eventually appeared on one of her albums (The hardest part) two years after this album was released. The album closes with the title track, which is an excellent duet with Garth Brooks.
This is not as strong overall as some of Trisha's early albums but it is an album of very high quality that no Trisha fan should be without.
good follow-up..........2005-02-23
this is a good follow up to the collection of hits cd. and she has such a great sound to this album, and her voice is AMAZING, if you haven't heard a song or album by her before, anyone of these songs could catch your attention... she opens brilliantly with "there goes my baby", and continues with the slow-pased "never let you go again". the tittle song "Where your road leads" is a brilliant duet with Garth Brooks. all in all this is one good cd. with a string of great songs...
Nice album.......2003-12-01
This album came off the heels of her successful SONGBOOK compilation from 1997. The first single "There Goes My Baby" was a big hit for Yearwood. She was on the top of her game at this point. Winning accolades from Nashville. Too bad it sort of ended here. This was her last truly successful album. She worked with Tony Brown as a producer on this one, giving it a more crisp, smooth production than past albums. The music leans a lot more to crossover than her previous albums have. Ballads once again are her strength, as evidenced on "Never Let You Go Again", "Love Wouldn't Lie To Me", and others. "Heart Like A Sad Song" is just that, a very sad song. "I Don't Wanna Be The One" is a nice emotional ballad. The title track is another duet with Garth Brooks, not quite as good as "In Another's Eyes", but still good. She manages a good cover of the Stones "Bring Me All Your Lovin". "I'll Still Love You More" was another hit from the album, a nice Diane Warren ballad. Another highlight is the uptempo song "Wouldn't Any Woman". Overall a strong album start to finish.
