Pro Reviews: Ropin' the Wind [Bonus Track]
| EXPERT RATING: From AMG Reviews With Ropin' the Wind, Garth Brooks begins to make his '70s rock influences more explicit. Naturally, that is most notable in his reworking of Billy Joel's "Shameless," which he transforms from a rock power ballad into contemporary country. But that influence is also evident on ambitious epics like "The River" and even the honky tonk ravers of "Papa Loved Mama" and "Rodeo." Some might say that those rock influences are what make Brooks a crossover success, but he wouldn't be nearly as successful if he didn't have a tangible country foundation to his music even when he comes close to standard arena rock bombast, there are gritty steel guitars or vocal inflections that prove he is trying to expand country's vocabulary, not trying to exploit it. [Brooks rereleased the album in 2000, adding the track "Which One of Them."] - Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide |

Pros: I started listening to this when I was really young.
Cons: I really don't like some of the songs on this album.
This was the very first Garth Brooks record I heard, and instantly fell in love with it. Years after making up gymnastics routines to Rodeo and The River, I bought the cd and wore it out until it skipped on nearly every song. I recomend it as a first taste of Garth's amazing career in the music industry, because it covers so many different subjects and tempos of severely country music.
