    It couldn't have been a better name than "Need You Now" for the second album by country trio Lady A. The lead single "Need You Now" is a a beautiful country pop ballad and the best song of the album so far when Scott's voice really makes the song.

    On Need You Now, they try to define themselves outside the hive, and though the disc contains no shortage of uptempo charmers--''Perfect Day,'' ''Stars Tonight''--they're most successful when they keep to the moody minor-key stuff.
