From Tennessean.com...Though Tanya Tucker has put more than 50 singles in the country chart's top 40 since making her debut at age 13, she quit recording when her father/manager, Beau Tucker, died in 2006.
She returns June 2 with My Turn, which finds her reworking classic songs made famous by some of country's greatest male singers, among them Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, George Jones and Faron Young.

"My dad basically introduced me to all those singers," says Tucker, now 50. "Most songs that I've ever done, from Delta Dawn on, were really for guys. I've spent a career taking men's songs and making them a woman's songs."
Tucker recorded with producer Pete Anderson, best known for his work on Dwight Yoakam's early hits. "Pete's got his stamp on it, for sure," Tucker says. "He prides himself on his own version of the Bakersfield sound." Guests include Jim Lauderdale; Rhonda and Darrin Vincent; bluegrass group The Grascals; and Tucker's ex-husband, Jerry Laseter.
