Ropin the Wind

Brooks’s third album, 1991’s Ropin’ the Wind, found him distancing himself further from the new-traditionalist hat-pack. The album’s centerpiece was an all-stops-out Southern-rock cover of Billy Joel’s “Shameless.” Another hit single, “Rodeo,” boasted a slinky Creedence-style groove. Brooks’s propensity for sentimental folk-pop clichés surfaced on the ballads “What She’s Doing Now” and “The River.” But “We Bury the Hatchet” and “Papa Loved Mama” were tongue-in-cheek attempts at honky-tonk and truck-drivin’ boogie. While Brooks subsequently has been criticized for putting a cowboy hat atop rock & roll and calling it country, these tracks sound more like vintage Ernest Tubb next to some of today’s Nashville Pop-tarts. –Rick Mitchell
