Amazon.com As the name suggests, Yankee Grey suffer from an identity crisis. Based in Cincinnati, Ohio, the band debuted with the single "All Things Considered," an odd and jittery rhythm number that attempted to blend urban angst, Texas pride, and Southern rock. Instead, it simply irritated whoever heard it. The rest of this uneven album skitters around the perimeters of '80s rock, but Yankee Grey, with their layered vocals and tight instrumental approach, can't decide if they want to be Restless Heart, Boston, or Exile, with a Charlie Daniels-like boogie and fiddle flourish. That leaves them with the occasional fetching song ("Another Nine Minutes," a celebration of early-morning amour), and the distinctive vibe that you've heard it all before. --Alanna Nash Similarly Requested CDs

Member CD Reviews Beth P. from CANADIAN, TX Reviewed on 7/20/2016... I can't remember how I learned about Yankee Grey. In the 1980's I bought Untamed on cassette tape and really enjoyed it. Now I have it on CD so I can put it on my iPod and enjoy it again.
CD ReviewsThe Most Underappreciated Album of the Year Cat | California | 06/14/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "Unfortunately for this group, this album was really overlooked by the music industry. Many reviewers shrugged it off as "another male country act trying to capitalize on the feel-good pop-country that is so popular right now". I, on the other hand, can't say enough about this debut disc and can't wait for a follow-up. It might be feel-good, rock-country but hey, who doesn't like to be in a good mood. Isn't that why we listen to music in the first place? The CD has a good mix of up-tempo songs and emotional ballads. Listeners will be delighted by the way that in their playful lyrics they left the listener to decide what they mean. For instance, in "Untamed" is he saying thing... or bang! There's quite a difference! And one of the better songs off the album "One" is entirely about proposing marriage but never says the dreaded "M" word. You will never reach for the skip button on this CD and you will wish you had bought it sooner rather than later!" YG is Untamed! Amy Carraway | Ky. | 05/03/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "After seeing their live show, I instantly bought the cd. Their showmanship is impeccable and the band is very personable. From the rollicking title track to the heartfelt ballads, Untamed has a track for everyone. Regardless of what the critics say, if you appreciate all forms of country music, you'll get your moneys worth here."
