The title says it all --
The Other Side
finds
Wynonna
exploring new territory, repositioning herself as a rootsy blues-rocker in the vein of
Bonnie Raitt
. While
has a strong voice, she doesn't have the presence to pull off this sound convincingly. Furthermore, the material just isn't strong. A few songs have catchy hooks, but most of them are bland and undistinguished, and when combined with
's unremarkable delivery, the results are a true disappointment. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
