Mindy McCready’s personal problems and tabloid-fodder lifestyle have often overshadowed her musical accomplishments, but the Florida native is possessed of a classic voice and a talent for creating smooth pop-country that retains a rural bite. Though matching the runaway four-times Platinum success of McCready’s debut album, TEN THOUSAND ANGELS, has proved elusive, her subsequent albums have showed her developing into a more confident and assertive artist, exploring a variety of styles, including new-traditionalist country, adult contemporary pop, and even Latin music.
