Anybody that don't have this CD, do yourself a favor, & get it.. Country music as it should be, what a great voice she has, not to mention her outstanding ability on the fiddle..
Thanks Miss Leslie & Ricky. |

I agree wholeheartedly.
To my ears, Miss Leslie is the Johnny Bush of female writers/vocalists.
She's certainly a lot better-looking than Johnny, too!

A great CD for sure and Ricky's playing was excellent! I just wish that whoever took the picture on the cover and inside had told her to smile a bit, she's a pretty lady but looked sad. But then again, who cares, she's a great vocalist, fiddler, & song writer.........JH in Va.

To All on the Steel Guitar Forum:
I want to say a big, heartfelt "Thank You" to everyone for spreading the word about my CD. I have had a lot of folks wonder why I am giving it away for free, and, to sum it up, we live in a different world. Record stores are not frequented. People are so inundated with music and hear so little of what is out there on the radio that it's difficult for people to even find out about most of the artists making music nowadays. I know for myself, when I think about buying a CD, it's difficult to get to that decision. Will I like all of the songs? Do I know this artist very well? These are the things that go through my mind.
My New Year's Resolution for 2009 is to find more fans. And to make it easy on people, I decided to offer my favorite CD, the songs of my heart, "Between the Whiskey and the Wine", for free. Because I love these songs. Because I love country music. Because I want people to hear that country music is still being played and written. Because I want people to know that the fiddle and steel are such powerful instruments in a country song.
If I gain more fans, I can gain the ability to play music full-time - tour around the world without working a day job. I can work at the career that I love and am so passionate about. So THANK YOU all for spreading the word and for digging the music. THAT is what it is all about.
Best,
Miss Leslie
P.S. Oh - and Jerry - I didn't smile because I felt like the songs on this CD were a little too centered around heartbreak to warrant a smile. But I PROMISE you one on the next CD. Thank you for the compliment.

BOY!
Same here! Just when you think you've heard the LAST REAL COUNTRY album, out pops another one!
I've been listening to it for a few days, and it's in my CD box in the car with my favorites.
My thanks to Miss Leslie and RD!
