内容紹介
The woman who owns the most majestic voice in Music City is marking a new milestone with an album that will be regarded as a masterwork of her career. Trisha Yearwoods Jasper County is a collection that comes from a period of re-evaluation, introspection, reinvigoration and self-reflection. The multi-Platinum, multi Grammy-winning star has never before given as much consideration and concern to a recording project. "Ive never taken this long to make a record," comments Yearwood. "Ive never recorded as many songs. Id never completely started over on an album like I did on this one. Overall, it was a two-year process to make this record." The bluesy, smoldering drama of "Who Invented The Wheel" contrasts with the chugging, zesty pep of "Baby Dont You Let Go." "River of You" is lovelorn and hypnotic, while "Pistol" is a hillbilly rocker with sass. "Sweet Love" is steamy, sexy and sweaty, yet "Standing Out in a Crowd" is airy, uplifting and inspiring. The throbbing, pulse-quickening "Try Me" features electrifying harmony by Ronnie Dunn. The gorgeous, dark and magnificent ballad "Trying to Love You" includes vocals by its co-composer, Beth Nielsen Chapman. Yearwood tears into "Gimme the Good Stuff" with the ferocious fire of a rocker, then turns rollicking, innocent and fun-loving in "Its Alright." The powerful emotional undertow of "Georgia Rain" has already made it the break-out single from Jasper County. Its understated male vocal harmony is by Garth Brooks. These are performances of startling freshness and passion. So it comes as something of a shock to realize that this is an artist who has issued 10 previous records and scored 20 top-10 hits. Trisha Yearwoods larger-than-life voice has helped to define contemporary country music.
Now she is ready to roll up her sleeves and work on her own music again. Following the release of Jasper County, the singer will reemerge as a touring artist later this year. "Its just like coming home," says Trisha Yearwood. "Everything is in the best perspective of my life, both professionally and personally. I feel wiser. I am just very, very happy. I consciously took a break, but I am not finished. I miss performing, and I do love the applause." "Singing gives me such joy. And it seems to give other people joy. Its what I believe I am supposed to do."
Amazonレビュー
Four years after her last album, 2001's Inside Out, Trisha Yearwood returns with a solid effort that reclaims her place on country radio, particularly with the evocative, bittersweet ballad "Georgia Rain," on which her fiancé, Garth Brooks, contributes quiet harmony. Brooks isn't the only notable guest on Jasper County--Ronnie Dunn drops by on "Try Me," and Beth Nielsen Chapman (always one of Yearwood's favorite tunesmiths) harmonizes on "Trying to Love You," one of the album's prettiest heartbreak songs. Yearwood varies her repertoire with such loose and funky numbers as "Pistol" and "Sweet Love" (where she's on the make in a dangerous blue dress) and the hypnotic song of swirling romantic obsession, "River of You." But while never less than thoroughly enjoyable, the album somehow falls shy of her best work. Yearwood remains one of the genre's finest interpretive singers, but this collection lacks a song that showcases the full range and power of her glorious soprano, and also falls short in delivering a ballad that brings her (and us) to her knees. It's great to have the multi-Grammy winner back, but aside from "Georgia Rain," most of Jasper County sounds closer to a bullpen warm-up than a home-run hit. -Alanna Nash

アーティストについて
After 12 years of non-stop touring and career building, Yearwood decided to take a break following the Gold-selling Inside Out CD of 2001 and its top-10 single "I Wouldve Loved You Anyway."
"I planned to take a year off. I just thought it was a good time to take a break for a lot of reasons. A year goes by really quickly, even if youre not doing anything. Then I started getting ready to make a record and listening to songs. I think I was just so anxious to get back into the studio that Garth Fundis and I just went in and cut a bunch of stuff. Then, for the first time, I stopped and reevaluated: These songs are good, but are they the right ones? At that point, we had to say, You know what? Its OK to start over."
"Once we did that, we were able to get to the next layer of songs, to dig a little deeper. When we got into the second set of sessions, it felt instantly right. Thats when I knew. You could just feel that it was special."
"Its been such a long road to get here, and thereve been so many road blocks along the way. You feel really protective of your music. You dont want to just throw it out there. You really want everybody on board and focused. So now the timing seems right. I think there were probably reasons for it to have taken the time it did."
Trisha Yearwood has been hailed as "one of the finest interpretive singers ever" by Entertainment Weekly. She has been saluted as "among the best vocalists currently working in any genre" by The Tennessean. CD Review calls her simply, "Nashvilles uber-vocalist." "The things that I bring to the table are, hopefully, songs that I believe have integrity," she comments modestly. The woman who has immortalized "The Song Remembers When," "Wrong Side of Memphis," "Believe Me Baby (I Lied)" and "How Do I Live," among others, says she chose "Georgia Rain" because, "It is the classic kind of story song that Ive always liked to do."
Listeners responded to her lustrous voice from the moment they first heard it 14 years ago. Following her signing by MCA, Trisha burst on the radio airwaves with the frisky rocker "Shes In Love With the Boy" in the spring of 1991. The single roared to No. 1, beginning a string of what would become nine No. 1 hits, such as "Thats What I Like About You," "The Woman Before Me," "XXXs and OOOs," "Thinkin About You" and "A Perfect Love." Trishas 10 MCA albums to date include four Gold Record winners (The Sweetest Gift, Everybody Knows, Real Live Woman, Inside Out), four Platinum awardees (Hearts In Armor, The Song Remembers When, Thinkin About You, Where Your Road Leads), a Double Platinum seller (Trisha Yearwood) and a Quadruple Platinum blockbuster (Songbook (A Collection Of Hits)). She won back-to-back CMA awards as countrys Female Vocalist of the Year in 1997 and 1998. She has been honored with three Grammy Awards and dozens of other trophies. She has sung at the Academy Awards, the closing ceremonies of the 96 Olympics, The White House and the Library of Congress. Yearwood has contributed to strong-selling soundtracks of such films as Hope Floats, Stuart Little, Thing Called Love and Honeymoon in Vegas, as well as to a number of charity CDs. Known as a willing and genial collaborator, she has provided harmony vocals to dozens of other artists recordings, including sessions for Reba McEntire, Rodney Crowell, Brooks & Dunn, Emmylou Harris, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Vince Gill, Pam Tillis and Patty Loveless. And a couple duets have led to Grammy awards - her pairing with Aaron Neville for "I Fall To Pieces" and with Garth Brooks for "In Anothers Eyes." Outside of the country genre and the U.S., Yearwood has performed with Pavarotti for his War Children of Liberia benefit concert in Italy. She has also sung with Don Henley.

フィーチャー・ナンバーでは、先行シングルのカントリー・バラードの「Georgia Rain」、ドニー・ダンをバック・ヴォーカルに迎えたカントリー・ポップ・スタイルの「Try Me」のほか、オールド・スタイルのカントリー・ポップ「Baby Don't You Let Go」、「It's Alright」、ソウル・ブルース・テイストの「Who Invented the Wheel」、「Standing Out in a Crowd」、カントリー・ロック・スタイルの「Pistol」、「Gimme the Good Stuff」、カントリー(ポップ)バラードの「Trying to Love You」、「River of You」、ファンキー・ソウル・スタイルの「Sweet Love」などほぼカントリー・ベースのポップ・ロック・ソウル・テイストと言って良い。前作までの志向性からカントリー・ベースの構成に変えた印象が強いアルバムである。なおガース・ブルックスとのデュエットの「Love Will Always Win」は06年以降のリリース・バージョンに追加されている。
飛び込んで来たのは去年のクリスマスの事でした。
それにしても、1991年のデビューの頃の彼女はとてもキュートでした。
まぁ、大人になったと云う事でしょうか。
これからの彼女の音楽の世界が広がる事を期待しつつ、本作ですが、
何といっても、#7でしょう。自らのルーツを紐解きながら澄み切った彼女の歌声が
ジョージアの大地にしみわたるように、感動的な楽曲になっています。
ハーモニー・ボーカルでご主人‘ガース・ブルックス’とのイキもピッタリです。
#3は彼女のお気に入りのべス・ニールセン・チャップマンが
ソングライトしています。
自分的には#5も気に入っています。ドキッとしますよ。
