Lorrie Morgan, sultry in both looks and sound, serves up a sizzling concoction with WAR PAINT. Her sensual soprano forcefully lets the men in her life know where they stand. The title track is a literal preparation for the battle of the sexes. A battle lost is also represented by "If You Came Back From Heaven," a self-penned tear-jerker tribute to her late husband, Keith Whitley. Two remakes--a smoldering duet with Sammy Kershaw on George Jones' "A Good Year For The Roses," and the 1966 Jeannie Seely hit, "Don't Touch Me"--add depth to the album. So, whether she's sassy or serene, rocking out or whispering hushed intentions, Lorrie Morgan presents a woman's full palette of colors in WAR PAINT.
