Traditional Texas Country Music from the first to the last track. Steel, fiddle, traditional country vocals , beautiful songs (12) and the production entrusted to Bobby Flores, former fiddler for Johnny Bush and Ray Price, owner of the Yellow Rose Records, one of the most famous indie labels thought highly of by many musical talents of the Lone Star State. This is “I’ll Take My Chances”, second CD by Janice Maynard, a young talented singer who leads us through the deepest sounds of her native land. I must say that this CD has a very classical sound to it and leaves no room for country-pop music which is heard throughout the American radio stations. Nashville is too far away and in San Antonio, country music has very specific rules. Bobby Flores’ touch is felt right from the opening track called “Bright Lights And Country Music”, a mid tempo song that opens up with the great sound of the fiddle. If, like me, you love music from Texas, two-step makes you go crazy and you allow yourself to be carried away by the sound of the steel guitar, then this “I’ll Take My Chances” is the CD for you. Bluebonnets, armadillos, Austin City Limit sign and Lone Star of any kind.
