Terrible. Trite lyrics and recycled songs. But at least the production is bad. Complete waste of money.

This is. Absolutely an award winning album! Gave me goosebumps from start to finish. Past and future generations thank you, Ladies. Your passion and talents are forever recognized.

Highwomen. The featured song, “Highwomen” is not the original! Why is there a stand in for one of the four featured women on the album?!?!?!

Highway women. Great c d the song highway women is great

Don’t disrespect the legends..... Way off naming themselves after the legends. They also should concentrate on getting a bigger fan base as individuals first. Nice try. There’s better music on Broadway on a Monday night.

A nod to classic county!. The modern country music scene has been losing its authenticity. It’s refreshing to hear an album that gives a nod to classic country. For those that hate this album— 1-800-GO-TO-HELL.

Ummmmm. Maren Morris is in this. Well it sure doesn’t. This sounds like it is from the 90’s I am really not a fan

I love it. first song I head from this collective was the self tilted. What an insanely good throwback to the highwayman while making the message many times more powerful. It made me cry the first time I heard it and weep when I played it for my wife. She is now a fan too. I, for whatever reason, looked at the 1 star reviews. Don’t listen to them. In reading them I feel that nothing a woman does, be it original or an homage, it will never be good enough for them.

Dope 8/10. Great album

Excellent work. Brandi Carlile is amazing. Songwriting is top notch.. Superb album.

Surprisingly Enjoyable. I’m generally a bigger fan of Brandi’s less country tunes. And after reading some reviews my hopes were low. But Maren Morris and Brandi Carlile were awesome when I saw them perform together and I’ll be seeing most of the Highwomen again this winter so I thought I’d give this a whirl. I don’t get the one star reviews at all except perhaps they are coming from a bunch of guys who only feel good when putting women down. All the more reason to have an album like this. Would probably have rated 4 stars as I don’t love every song on the album. But I do love several and maybe my extra star will offset a few of the sad sacks who felt the need to give it 1 star just to make themselves feel better. Give it a go, decide for yourself, it might surprise you.

Do any current songwriters in Nashville.... read books? This is the bottom of the barrel songwriting just like the garbage on commercial country radio. Go study the greats. The unison vocals are terrible.

Love this. This album is incredible!! Nice work ladies. Country music needed this album!

Well done!. I like this album. Their voices work well together. Lovely harmonies. I’m over here loling at all the 1-star reviews from people who seem to really want a woman to get in the kitchen and make them a sandwich.

Stunning.. I've been craving some powerful, harmony-filled acoustic country music -- and The Highwomen really deliver. There are fun, bouncy tunes (Redesigning Women, Don't Call Me); beautiful, tear-driving anthems (Highwomen, Cocktail and a Song, Wheels of Laredo); and so many other excellent songs (Old Soul, My Only Child, ...). The lyrics and the harmonies are just heart-breakingly beautiful. The production is clean and sweet sounding. This is a great antidote to the Beer, Trucks and Butts on modern country music radio.

Beautiful voices, strong women, modern message. This album is for all women! Anyone leaving negative reviews clearly hasn’t listened to the whole album. Yes, the title track is a remake, but with its own modern message. This album is incredibly unique and showcases all of these women’s beautiful voices and amazing talent. I love the larger message of women supporting each other instead of competing with each other!

Stan the music man unusual. Be a little more creative in naming your group or better yet go home 🏡 & clean your house & leave country music to real people

The Highwomen????. This album is a half-hearted attempt at capitalizing on an original concept that was fortified many years ago with the stellar efforts of “The Highwaymen". What we get here is a group of aspiring artists who are not in any way equal to the level of seniority of what Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Kris Kristofferson respectively brought to the table. If this band contained the likes of Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood, Pam Tillis and Dolly Parton, we might be able to fully appreciate what they're presenting here with this self-titled release, but these ladies are just not on par with the namesake. Even the name "The Highwaywomen" would have been a better choice than "The Highwomen"! Seriously, what in the name of cheesy spin-offs were they thinking?!?

I really wanted to like this.. Individually each of these artists carved their own paths musically. I have a great deal of respect for them all. But this album is a bit of a mess. The concept is unnecessary and reaching for a comparison to the greatest male artists of that generation was a mistake, no matter the intention. The video for Redesigning Women left me disappointed. No critic can really say this as he/she will be butchered because we all want more women to succeed on country radio and streaming formats. If this supergroup continues to put out music, I will be rooting for them! Please, be original and spend more time getting it right next time.

Great harmonization. I'm also posting this review to offset the stupid 1 star reviews.

Extreme talent. For the people saying that this can’t be a supergroup when they all aren’t huge commercial stars, let me remind you that album sales does not always go hand in hand with talent. Each of these women are very talented, and they created a fantastic album together.

Not Real Country. Bubble gum country. If you want real country. Go get the new Tanya Tucker album. Wheels of Laredo is done properly on Tanya’s album

🤔. Maren Morris and who???

Soaring vocals & stories that mean something!. Crowded Table is a life anthem for me. So glad you came together to spread love and rebellion!

Dave Cobb to the rescue. Although these 4 musicians are not considered elite in Country Music by any stretch, they do have talent, and apparently, savvy to spare when it comes to working the levers of the hype machine. Despite (with the exception of Ms Morris) very modest commercial success they managed to get this project billed as a "Country Super Group" ... that's a bit presumptuous for musicians at this level.. Patty Loveless, Carrie Underwood, Lee Ann Womack, Kelsea Ballerini and Shania Twain... that would be an actual "Super Group" For all you Country Music purists out there, these songs are definitely solid Country sounding. There's just nothing remarkable here. Even the name "Highwomen" is rather weak word play. Standing ovation for Dave Cobb producing doing the best anyone could hope for.

Meh. Dumb name. Couple good songs.

A couple problems.... 1.) too much unison singing 2.) the name is a rip-off, but we do get the idea is good But other than that it feels classic and is a good album.

Miranda is not in this. I regret buying the album. Waste of time and money.

Fantastic album. Great mix of progressive country with classic sounds.... one of the best country albums that I have heard in close to a decade. Bravo!

Great music. I love all genres of music & this is simply a beautiful country album by some of the best country artists today. They are all talented on their own. Together they have made a solid harmonious album.

Ignore the trolls. Best album in a LONG time.

Love it. Great record!

epic. Great album! Fun. Serious. Thoughtul. Light-hearted. All couched in excellent music, craft and personality

Good Try But.... I appreciate what they are trying to do here because I am tired of all the "Cookie Cutter Cowboys" on Country Radio, but I don't see these songs getting much airplay. These young ladies have been failed by the production. Too many times they are made to sound like a chorus instead of four individual young talents. This, along with what sounds like overdubbing and too close harmonies create a sound that does not hold up.

Yikes. Thai is garbage

Fantastic. I love this. The music fills my soul with something warm during these difficult times

Wonderful & Original. Despite some of the idiots reviews, these are four amazingly talented singer/songwriters. To the person who spoke against Miranda fans- Miranda was a part of this album and completely supports these ladies. To the “folks” who spout off about the original Highwaymen- Jimmy Webb assisted in re-writing their namesake song and completely supports these ladies along with Willie Nelson (who was a Highwayman) and his son. We need more women in Country Music & these ladies are trying to facilitate more support and less competition! Great album- I LOVE it!!

Ode to History, With Fresh Eyes. It’s reinvention while paying tribute. There’s personal story telling along with songs with historical significance. I’ve really enjoyed each song on this album. Well done.

Um...Why ?. Nashville music producers must be running out of ideas. It's a real shame that they try and copy what was great many years ago, by seasoned artists, (Cash, Kristoferson, Nelson, & Jennings) . No real sound of country in this album at all. Nashville producers should stop the nonsense of re-identifying this garbage music, and trying to pass it off as anything good, let alone country music. What will be intersting to see is, how much this album will eventually make money wise in the end. Don't believe I've heard any of the songs played on the air.

Pure crap by 4 unknowns. The original highwaymen were legends of their time (and now) coming together to make legendary music, these are four unknown want to be women copying the greatest of all time for a buck!! I'll pass !!

Just don’t like it. The idea is great but this is horrible. Maybe if it were different artists....

Reminds me of the Dixie Chicks. And I mean that it the most respectful way.

Fantastic. Pure perfection. Channeling the greats like Emmy, Dolly, and Linda, this album is solid country gold with all the feminine glory that we deserved and have been waiting for.

Keep up the good work!. Wheels of Laredo was done so well! Love where they are going with all this.

Clever and Fun. Harmonies full of effervescence, smart lyrics, this music makes you smile and tap your toes.

So good!. Love all the songs, especially Crowded Table!

Love it!!. It is a great album!

Pretty good. I don’t like the production but I really do like the songs, live

Amazing! Gorgeous music - starting something.... Way to go ladies! Gorgeous music - but you've always made gorgeous music. However, now you're getting attention because you're working together. The trolls are awake, and that's okay, because now you'll know that you're actually making a difference! If no one is criticizing you then no one is listening. Well done, ladies!

To the Negative Reviewers -HOMEWORK!. For the negative reviewers who don't GET it...the Highwayman was written NOT by Johnny or Willie or Waylon or Kris, but by Jimmy Webb. He gave the Highwomen his blessing on recording his song. Some reviewers on here seem to think that these ladies are just pretty young faces. They need to do their homework. Each of these women individually is a talented writer and vocalist. They too, like Dolly, Patty and Emmylou paid their dues is a slightly later era. The Highwomen is a great spinoff to a classic, but with a female point of view, especially in a time when female country artists are being snubbed by radio in favor of bro-country hick-hop Friday night-pickup truck-beer and hot chick BS lyrics. It's a great kick in the face to the country radio lemming decision-makers, whether they are PDs or so-called broadcast consultants in bed with record company suits. So...don't expect to hear any of this album on radio. They won't "get" it.

brandi is a goddess. i've been a fan of brandi carlisle's solo albums for quite a while (via avett brothers fandom) and so i thought i would check this out, not knowing the other artists. i grew up hearing the highway men album and their cover of that track is bone chilling phenomenal. these ladies are powerful and gorgeous singers and lyricists. "loose change" and "my only child" have quickly become some of my favourite songs... possibly EVER?! i have never been a fan of "new" country and kinda viewed it as a thing of my parents' generation but these incredible people are taking it to a new generation and keeing it classy AF! LOVE THIS ALBUM!

Out of Control Amazing. I pre-ordered this and have received 3 songs - the title track, Redesigning Women, and Crowded Table. If these were the only contents of the album it would be the most gut wrenchingly incredible new music I've heard in years. Speaking as a husband and father to a daughter, I can't even describe how impactful these tracks are to me. I am utterly emotionally decimated every time I listen to these tracks. This is an historic album and a new high bar for my own music experience.

Not great.. Was expecting more from people taking an inconic group and having them put what they thought was a fun twist on there name. Unfortunate.

Wow. Amazing! Beautiful! Original

The best. Anthems for my generation

Fantastic!. I love this album! Beautiful songwriting and the talent of these artists is undeniable.

Superb in every way. Stellar songwriting, humor, sass, wisdom, compassion, it's all here. The vocal performances are gorgeous and moving. The musiciandship is world-class, and the technical aspects of the production and engineering are handled beautifully. Listen to this happily on headphones and float away in a magical space. It's genuinely great!

Amazing!!. This is greatly needed in country music today. I can’t wait for the rest of the album. These ladies are awesome
