| | Amazon.com: New Day Dawning: Music: Wynonna Judd (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) |
 | | Wynonna Judd's first album of the 21st century is an event in and of itself, but the fact that it comes with a four-song EP featuring new music recorded with mom Naomi (the first such in over a decade) makes it particularly memorable. |
 | | Wynonna's album continues her trademark mix of country, rock, soul, and a little gospel, with the soul more or less predominating; "New Day Dawning," for example, has a horn section straight out of a '60s Stax/Volt session, and the quietly percolating "I Can't Wait to Meet You," is actually co-written by neo-RandB revivalist Macy Gray. |
 | | The Judds reunion disc is a little low-key, compared to the album per se, but it's great fun, from the pun-filled creation of the world title song, to a heartfelt (but no less funny) psychedelic peace-and-love anthem ("The 60s Were the 90s Upside Down") complete with sitar and backwards guitar. |
