Details: Product Description July 1996 was when LeAnn's 1st album, Blue, was released on Curb. Now, less than 2 years later, she has already SoundScanned over 11 MILLION albums. She has set numerous records and won many prestigious industry awards, but already LeAnn's 1997 single, "How Do I Live," has earned the distinction of being the longest-running #1 single on any Billboard chart in history. Sittin' on Top of the World is the much-anticipated all-new music production follow up to Blue. Amazon.ca "El stinko," writes one Amazon.com customer, but to be fair to Rimes, her second album since the surprising debut Blue is more misguided than merely bad. She bites off more than she can chew, and producer Wilbur Rimes (LeAnn's father) tries to force-feed warmed-over Adult Contemporary arrangements and overheated pop fare ("Purple Rain" may be the silliest cover in "country" history), the kind neither Rimes nor the listener can easily swallow. Sittin' on Top of the World may be an advance from the truculent You Light Up My Life, but Rimes's talents are being squelched by the superstar machine. Still, with the right production and right songs, Rimes may yet make a consistently strong country album. --Roy Kasten
