When I think about the Muzik Mafia, I
am reminded of the story of Icarus
flying too near to the sun. I am also
reminded of the first wave of rock'n'roll.
When it was over, it was followed by
anemic performers like Bobby Rydell,
Frankie Avalon and Fabian. Much the
same has happened following the
meteoric rise to the limelight of
Gretchen Wilson and Big & Rich. They
have been followed by a bunch of
wimpy singers, both male and female
without an ounce of the same musical
talent that made the Muzik Mafia
priceless.
Listening to Gretchen's Great Hits
package, I realize that she was and still
is one of the finest female singers to
have emerged in the last decade. She
sings with power when necessary that
is unmatched and she sings ballads
with depth that those that followed in
her wake can only dream about. What
also makes one aware while listening
to this collection is how good a
songwriter she is. Definitely my CD of
the month.
