Query: A MIXED EFFORT

I can take this or leave it. The first song is so terrible that it almost made me want to throw the CD in the trash. "So Good Together" was just plain awful. Loud noise..that's all it was. But things got a little better. Some of the songs on here are pretty good. They are mostly ballads the best of which are "Before the War", "Roses", "I'm Not Your Girl" and "We're All Alone", a cover tune done with some Mexican guys by the name of Jose and Durval. That last one is actually very, very good!! Overall this Cd is a mixed effort that could have used more imaginative production.
