Three Chords and the Truth

No Place That Far Sara Evans's 1997 debut, Three Chords and the Truth, seemed, on first hearing, impossible. Here was a major-label Nashville album that, once again, faithfully captured the heartbreaking simplicity of classic country; here was a singer who could belt out with raw nerve and then sl...	Born to Fly With Three Chords and the Truth, her 1997 debut album, Missouri-born Sara Evans not only wowed listeners with her superb vocal chops, but also boldly and unpretentiously staked claim to a neo-traditionalist style that suggested she'd done a lot of listening to Loretta Lynn and th...	Restless Sara Evans's 2000 effort, the platinum-selling Born to Fly, put her in the front ranks of the most promising of modern country singer-songwriters. As a woman with a strong traditional background, she found a way to marry contemporary sounds and sensibilities with her bedrock coun...	Real Fine Place Sara Evans began basic and earthy on her 1997 debut, Three Chords and the Truth-- only to U-turn into poppish, radio-friendly, late-'90s fare that expanded her popularity. Then, in 2003, she swerved back to raw traditionalism on Restless, which showcased her edgy, in-your-face hi...	Sara Evans Greatest Hits Growing up in her family band in Missouri, Sara Evans learned two valuable lessons: always imbue a song with palpable emotion, and quickly change directions if a number tends to flop. Both rules have kept Evans in the big leagues the last 10 years. If she's moved more squarely in...

The Video Collection	Carnival Ride Carrie Underwood's Some Hearts, hastily made and released some five months after she won the 2005 American Idol crown, was surprisingly solid and tuneful.

Great Debut
"Three Chords and the Truth" serves as a great country album debut. Sara Evans is such a talented singer and is such a great icon to country music. This album is filled with twangy, traditional, pure country tunes. Some of the highlights are "Shame About That", "Imagine That", "Three Chords and the Truth", "Even Now" and "True Lies". Even the slow ballads are wonderful. There are no fillers; every song is enjoyable. This album is 100% country with no pop sounds. I never get tired of listening to this album.

Three Chords and the Truth
I have been a Sara Evans fan since I was [....](now 14). When I bought her Restless CD, I thought, wow, I have to have more of her. So I went and bought the Real Fine Place and Born To Fly CD. I was looking on the internet and found two more CDs to buy (No Place That Far and Three Chords and the Truth) that you couldn't find out in stores because they're so old. I bought them and as soon as I listened to the tracks on this CD, I thought WOA! She covered a lot of songs on this album such as Buck Owens's "Tiger By The Tail," "Walk Out Backwards" and Patsy Cline's "Imagine That" and she also recorded "Shame About That" a song that she wrote when she was very young. She uses a very traditional voice in this album, being in her fan club, I heard Sara say, when she was recording this album, the producer told her "Girl you remind me of Loretta Lynn!" Anyways, this is a very great CD, I would definatly recomend this CD to everyone.

Great Debut
This is a great traditional-flavored debut country album by Sara. Sara has a great voice. I'm not much into the traditional country sound, but I think this album really won me over because of its great energy on the uptempo stuff mixed with truly engaging ballads. Here are notable songs: True Lies Shame About That - very high-spirited 3 Chords and the Truth - ballad about reconciling with lover after hearing song on radio If You Ever Want My Lovin Even Now - really moves Tiger by the TAil - very feisty, listener wants to dance around Walk Out Backwards Sara's done good stuff since, but nothing better than this album

Early Sara Evans
It has a country twang you don't find on the newer Sara Evans albums more traditional, but good

A great debut album!
This is one of Sara's best albums. It's very country and has a great country songs on it. Too bad Radio didn't like it - It hit a wall with radio sadly. But if you love old-fashioned country songs, this is for you! Choice tracks: True Lies Shame about That Three Chords and the Truth I don't wanna see the light Unopened
