Dixie Chicks – Taking The Long Way (2LP)
With 2006’s TAKING THE LONG WAY, Dixie Chicks made their most powerful musical and cultural statement to-date. Produced by Rick Rubin, driven by the anthemic mission statement, “Not Ready To Make Nice”. TAKING THE LONG WAY was embraced by critics and fans alike. Dixie Chicks made music history at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards when they became the first female group ever to take home the big three top Grammy honours: Song Of The Year (for “Not Ready To Make Nice”), Record Of The Year (for “Not Ready To Make Nice”) and Album Of The Year (for TAKING THE LONG WAY). They achieved another Grammy milestone that night when TAKING THE LONG WAY became the first Best Country Album ever to win the Album Of The Year trophy.
