    This is as good as it gets right now; it'll be the country album to beat in 2007.

    As expected, there's plenty of ass-kicking country on Wilson's third album, but it's her softer side that sets it apart. [19 May 2007]

    Not as perfect as her 2004 debut, but a step up from its follow-up. [18 May 2007, p.66]

    Rather than moving boldly forward, she ends up holding her ground.

    With “One of the Boys,” her third album, Ms. Wilson rediscovers her greatest asset: her extraordinary voice. [14 May 2007]
