Restless (1995)

EW's GRADE
C+

Details Release Date: Jul 18, 1995; Lead Performance: Shelby Lynne; Genre: Country

Country chanteuse Shelby Lynne went the '40s big-band route on 1993's Temptation, but on Restless, she delves into swing, jazz-pop, and down-home country. Lynne's megawatt voice is all wrong for Nashville balladry, but when she cuts loose on the slinky country-blues of ''Slow Me Down,'' you'll be telling her all your secrets. C+
