RICKY LYNN GREGG
The release of Ricky Lynn Gregg’s third solo country album, “Careful What You Wish For” (RMG Records, 2001), solidifies Gregg as a mainstay artist in country music. As well known for his edgy brand of country as for his scores of devoted fans, Gregg refines his talent on this 10-song disc, and says he is more proud of this project than any of his previous albums.

Musically diverse, “Careful What You Wish For” is a clear reflection of a man known for his traditional country roots, his rockin country music, and his rangy vocals. This album truly offers something for every-one. From Victoria’s Secret, a deceptively simple Gregg-penned tribute to the inner beauty of women, to Tornado, the hard rockin’, comical story of trouble in a trailer park, this album ranges from southern rock, to stone cold traditional country, to contemporary country pop. Co-produced by Gregg, Barry Beckett and Eddie Gore, legendary blues man Steve Cropper even lent a hand on a few of the tracks.

Ricky Lynn Gregg was named Billboard’s #4 Top New Artist in 1993, for his country debut on LibertyRecords, “Ricky Lynn Gregg”. Singles released from the album include If I Had a Cheatin’ Heart, Three Nickels and a Dime, and Can You Feel It. “Get a Little Closer”, his second album on Liberty, put Gregg in the ranks of the finest of country vocalists.
