| Editorial Reviews:
Amazon.com essential recording Dwight Yoakam's fourth studio album was his most muscular yet. Alongside the overtly rocking cuts, his honky-tonkers also kicked harder than anywhere in his catalog; on top of all this, he gave his loosest, most assured-sounding vocal performances to date. That he cowrote one of the disc's biggest singles, "It Only Hurts When I Cry," with Roger Miller makes perfect sense; Yoakam and Miller shared an ambivalently loving attitude toward the country-music establishment. Yoakam's insistence on going his own way would lead to even more indelible long-players, but If There Was a Way remains among his most impressive. --Rickey Wright

This Is a Classic Album! June 2, 2008 This album features Dwight's wonderful voice, excellent musicianship and production and a nice variety of songs. Best song to me is "It Only Hurts When I Cry," co-written with Roger Miller. I also love everything else except perhaps the last track, "Let's Work Together." That's the only one that's less than stellar for me. The rest are superb, and they make this album a true classic. To me this means most people would like it throughout the years no matter what music they tend to ordinarily listen to. Even if they "hate" country music, they'd have to like this!!
Great Album from a Great Artist March 18, 2008 This is a great album from start to finish. Dwight Yoakam is a wonderfully talented singer and song writer. Great intro to anyone not familiar with Dwight as an artist!
Dwight Yoakam If There Was A Way February 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
With Dwight Yoakam's music there will always be a way. His voice is above uniqueness and he puts his all into all his songs. I totally agree with the late Johnny Cash that Dwight is the best compared to the country singers of this era.
There IS a Way . . . . December 11, 2006 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
"If There Was A Way" to hear and experience an audio electric kaleidoscope of musical emotions, this album by one of "counrty's" most interstingly edgy artists will provide it.
Turn up the volume and become engulphed with the rush of "Turn It On, Turn It Up, Turn Me Loose"! . . .
Then the "happy sadness" masked by the clown in the lyrical lament co-written by Dwight and the late Roger Miller in "It Only Hurts When I Cry".
That bitter/sweet song is perhaps equalled by the flat-out melancholy of "You're The One".
And for reason i can't quite seem to explain, nor do I try, my favorite track on this album is the electric amped-up buzz of "Dangerous Man". (I first heard this track played on the then TNN television show, "Club Dance" and something about its "sound" just drew me into it and simply swamped me with its magic.
Dwight Yoakam is not just a performer of country music . . . he is an artist who puts his laughter and tears into his lyrics and music . . . he reality of that comes through in each note that you listen to. Dwight's music and recordings transcend the fads of the times and are timeless . . . they will be listened to and enjoyed and appreciated decades and decades from now . . . but is Dwight a "Dangerous Man"? :)
Review of Dwight Yoakam's cd "If There Was a Way" November 6, 2006 It's an excellent cd. I just love it.
