Dixie Chicks rebound with their latest release

By Geoff Boucher, Times Staff Writer
June 1, 2006

THE Dixie Chicks, which has endured a wartime experience uncommon in pop music, has the No. 1 album in the country this week as its rock-leaning "Taking the Long Way" debuts at the top of the national chart after selling 562,000 copies in its first week.

It was one of the best sales weeks by an album this year and indicates that the trio remains commercially viable despite the backlash from country fans and radio after singer Natalie Maines made disparaging comments about President Bush on the eve of the war in Iraq.

The debut total fell short of the group's best (the Chicks' 2002 album "Home" sold 780,000 in its debut).
