The Speed of Love is the third solo album by Tammy Rogers, released April 6, 1999. Jason Ankeny's biography of Tammy Rogers on AllMusic mentions that she was a member of Patty Loveless' backing band, which she followed with a stint backing Trisha Yearwood before becoming one of the first members of Kieran Kane's Dead Reckoning label.[1]

Critical reception[edit]

Dan Williams of Country Standard Time concludes his review with, "This is sturdy and consistently listenable - an honest record that serves as a welcome antidote to the many freeze-dried ingenues spilling out of Music Row of late."[2]

Eric Thom of Exclaim writes, "Nashville’s most in-demand session fiddle player not only unleashes her seasoned songwriting ability on this release, but she’ll lay your soul to waste with her angelic singing voice as well."[3]
