Wide Open Spaces (The Chicks)

Easy on the ears, The Chicks' fourth album "Wide Open Spaces" broke wide open and made the band, then known as The Dixie Chicks, a household name. Nearly thirty years on, this album still holds up beautifully, as the trio's impeccable harmonies and their collaborators' exceptional melodies results in an album that will take care of you. Searingly sincere and clear vocals from the band's then new singer Natalie Maines cemented The Chicks as a County force to be reckoned with, and this first album with her plants a big old boot proving why.

Please listen along with us. Your homework for next time is "Pinkerton" by Weezer.
