From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paint the Town was the last of the great albums featuring Paulette Carlson as lead vocalist. To be sure, she would later return to the group for a short time, but would never achieve the heights attained in their first three albums. The top singles included the Billboard Country #1 "Who's Lonely Now," the #4 "Walkin', Talkin', Cryin', Barely Beatin' Broken Heart," and the #11 "This Side of Goodbye." Other great tunes were "If Love Had a Heart" and "I'll Paint the Town," but a cover version of James Taylor's "Sweet Baby James" seemed out of place for this two-stepping honky-tonk group.
