Rick Rubin is a musical genius and this is further proof of that.  The Dixie Chicks had a lot to answer for when they made those unfavorable statements about former President Bush.  Scratch Magazine once described “Not Ready to Make Nice” as the song that made the Dixie Chicks this generation’s Public Enemy.  I couldn’t agree more.  But the album as a whole is fantastic too.  Great writing, production, and performance.  I’m glad they received multiple Grammys for it.
