Gretchen Wilson - Here for the Party [DualDisc]
Prices: $5.99 - $19.99 from 7 stores
With her 2004 debut album HERE FOR THE PARTY, Gretchen Wilson brings country music back to its basics. Hitting number one on the country music charts within a week of its release, the album established Wilson as a major force among other female country acts like Tanya Tucker and Wanda Jackson, with whom she shares a certain edge. Raised in a series of trailer parks, Wilson's rough exterior is not just an act. With the breakout hit "Redneck Woman," Wilson embraces, and profits from her "white trash" background. It is this attitude and the stripped-down style of her music that separates her from more mainstream country singers like Shania Twain and Faith Hill. HERE FOR THE PARTY shows quite a range, with songs about everything from whiskey to heartbreak displaying Wilson's tough girl persona, and a surprising vulnerability. This dual disc release features the full length album as well as accompanying visual material, including an Interview with Wilson, and music videos for the songs "When I Think About Cheatin',""Redneck Woman," and "Here For the Party." In addition, the DVD features a live acoustic version of "Holdin' You," and a duet entitled "Outlaw Women" with Hank Williams Jr.
