The chemistry between Naomi and Wynonna Judd was irresistible when they rode high on the country charts in the ’80s, and tonight it’s obvious it hasn’t diminished a whit since mama Naomi bowed out of the act circa 1991.
“I’ve been rhinestone-free for 17 stinking years!” Naomi cracked at the outset of this performance billed as a “one-time-only reunion.”
The secret was the balance between Wynonna’s heart-on-sleeve emotionalism, which can turn syrupy on its own, and Naomi’s working mom-bred sharp wit.
Great to have them together again, even if only for a night.
