Album Reviews
Mindy Smith was pegged as a Nashville breakout in 2003, when her riveting cover of Dolly Parton's "Jolene" cocked ears. But happily, the Long Island native is too unruly to fit into a mainstream country costume. Her pop sweet tooth is in full effect here on the single "Highs and Lows" and "What Love Can Do," which nod to Rumours-era Fleetwood Mac. And her bright soprano is balanced by serious lyrical darkness. "Bad Guy" is a pretty breakup ballad with hidden barbs. When she purrs, "Who do you blame when the drugs can't get you high?" near the end of a chugging Stax-Volt party rocker, her conviction is a little unnerving.
