With their blend of country, pop, rock, and forthright attitude, the Dixie Chicks took the country music world by storm in the late 1990s, after kicking around for several years with a slightly different lineup and recording for indie labels. This two-disc live album is something of a love letter to the trio`s fans; not the fickle few who abandoned them for speaking their minds about the U.S. government in a 2003 "scandal," but those who`ve always loved their energetic, from-the-heart approach to recording and (especially) performing.
Though they`re genuine pop stars, the Chicks display country roots here, as on the classic Ray Price-like shuffle of "Hello Mr. Heartache" and the bluegrass instrumental showpiece "Lil` Jack Slade," where the ladies show off their guitar and fiddle chops. They`re still full of contemporary sass, though, as witnessed by the rowdy, irreverent leadoff cut "Goodbye Earl" and the breakneck "White Trash Wedding." And yes, Fleetwood Mac fans, their popular acoustic cover of "Landslide" is here, too.
