At 86 years old, the Coal Miner’s Daughter still has a place on the Nashville stage. A leading figure of Opry in the 1960s, this great lady who started from nothing to reach the summit of her art is respected, even worshipped by all country music enthusiasts. With Wouldn't It Be Great, she has released a deeply personal project that looks back at her career. Faithful to the traditional country music of the honkytonks and the Carter Family, it is not surprising to hear her sing the anthem of her autobiography Coal Miner’s Daughter once again. Forty-eight years have passed and yet her charm has remained intact. Steel guitar, fiddle and high-pitched voice − the more time passes, the stronger the emotional impact. Although Loretta goes back to some great classics (God Makes No Mistakes), she doesn’t fall for corny nostalgia. Once again co-produced by John Carter Cash and his daughter Patsy Lynn Russell, the album also features original songs like No Time To Go and Ruby’s Stool. Although Loretta Lynn sticks out with her long blue dress in today’s world, a single song is enough for the listener understand the majesty of the Queen of Country Music. © Clara Bismuth/Qobuz
