| | BARRY'S NOTES - May 2002 |
 | | Her breakout album, Car Wheels on a Gravel Road, went gold and won her a Grammy, and mainstream periodicals like People, Newsweek, the Wall Street Journal and even The New Yorker heralded her as the anti-Shania -- as a female country artist who actually was an artist. |
