Description

RHYTHM AND ROMANCE still ranks as Roseanne Cash's masterwork fully twenty years after its original 1985 release.

Although widely ignored by traditional country enthusiasts Cash's electric guitar-based country presaged such monster acts as Shania Twain and Faith Hill in the 1990s. The overtly sexual, Barbie-pink album jacket was a feminine gauntlet thrown down amidst a male-dominated musical form that was fossilized in its own tracks. Roseanne, the daughter of the original "Man In Black" came to us in full female color.

"I Don't Know Why You Don't Want Me" was the chartbreaker, but RHYTHMmore… AND ROMANCE had four hit singles and a Grammy. And unlike Twain and Hill (and their many imitators), Roseanne is truly wistful, painfully honest, and aggressive by turns, able to wring real tears out of most of the songs on this album. In short, it works as both traditional country and crossover material.

Still the piece de resistance amongst female country music albums, RHYTHM AND ROMANCE is as fresh today as it was when the needle first met the platter.

Never mind the compilation version. If you can find the original, get it.
