| Alan Jackson and a bargain price They say good things come in pairs and this is the best ever. This is a great cd, I especially like She's Got the Rhythm (I Got the Blues), Tropical Depression, Up To My Ears in Tears, you can really hear the fiddle and steel guitars on the latter. By Dorothy (Claremont, N.C., USA) |

Good Time CD (2008) Top Seller
Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) album for sale On his first traditional country album since 2004's WHAT I DO, Alan Jackson steps outside the comfortable routine he's created for himself in favor of creating a more personal and introspective work. The first album on which Jackson has written all of the songs all by himself, GOOD TIME is Jackson's most autobiographical album by some distance. "Small Town Southern Man" is a touching farewell to his late father, while "I Wish I Could Back Up" and "Never Loved Before" (a duet with country superstar Martina McBride) are intimate love songs more revealing than most country radio fare. GOOD TIME is true to its title, however; alongside the revealing autobiographical tunes, there are sly, swaggering country-rockers like "Country Boy" and more thoughtful fare like the devotional "If Jesus Walked The World Today." At 17 songs, this is one of Alan Jackson's longest albums, but GOOD TIME features remarkably little filler and many outstanding new traditionalist country songs in the great Alan Jackson style.
Alan Jackson: Brent Mason (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar); Bruce Watkins (acoustic guitar, banjo); James Curtis Mitchell (electric guitar, accordion); Paul Franklin (steel guitar, lap steel guitar, dobro); Robbie Flint (lap steel guitar); Stuart Duncan (mandolin, fiddle); Jim Hoke (harmonica, accordion, Jew's harp); Gary Prim (piano, Wurlitzer piano, Clavinet, Hammond b-3 organ, keyboards); Hargus "Pig" Robbins (piano, Wurlitzer piano); Greenwood Hart, Shane Keister (vocoder); Glenn Worf (upright bass, bass guitar); Jimmy Carter (bass guitar); Eddie Bayers (drums); Lucas Ketner (percussion); John A.

Drive CD (2002)
Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) buy CD music DRIVE was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Award for Best Country Album. "Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)" was nominated for the 2003 Grammy Awards for Song Of The Year and Best Male Country Vocal Performance..
The obvious talking point on Alan Jackson's hugely successful DRIVE is "Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)," a song written in response to the September 11 attacks on the Pentagon and the World Trade Center. Its refreshing lack of gung-ho patriotism and focus on small details ("Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watchin'/And turn on I Love Lucy reruns") is a hallmark of Jackson's songwriting, which is adept at finding a telling detail to highlight a bigger truth.
Elsewhere, in the best country tradition, "The Sounds" is a familiar tale of heartbreak freshly told, while "Work in Progress" is a catalog of a redneck doofus's unwitting transgressions that'll find an echo in many male listeners. "Designated Drinker," a duet with George Strait, is another in a seemingly inexhaustible line of country drinking songs. Appropriately for an album named DRIVE, two automobile-related songs bookend the set. The title track is about Jackson's first boat and car, while "First Love," in the tradition of NRBQ's "Little Floater" and Neil Young's "Long May You Run," is also about a much-loved vehicle that should be food for thought for women everywhere.
"Where Were You (When The World Stopped Turning)" won the 2003 Grammy Award for Best Country Song.

Tim Mcgraw Not a Moment Too Soon CD (1994) Top Seller
Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) songs The key element in young McGraw's appealing country synthesis is the persistent undercurrent of chicken-fried rock'n'roll in the mix, as on the bluesy "40 Days And 40 Nights" and the pulsating "Ain't That Just Like A Dream," with its big, ringing arena gestures (descended from bands the likes of Lynyrd Skynyrd). Not that McGraw can't get next to a ballad, as he demonstrates on the steel-guitar inflected "Wouldn't Want It Any Other Way" and the nostalgic "Don't Take The Girl."
But it's the hard-charging, dancing "turbo tonk" of tunes like his big hit "Indian Outlaw"--with its shifting tom-tom groove, shuffling blues jig and fiddling square dance breaks--that best captures the rowdy spirit and rough-and-ready delivery of Tim McGraw. Daddy Tug McGraw (a pitching hero for 20-plus years with championship New York Mets and Philadelphia Phillies teams) must be proud.
With his high lonesome yodel, and jacked-up honky tonk groove, singer Tim McGraw is the latest in a new generation of country heartthrobs to capture the imagination of today's young country fans. From the opening notes of "It Doesn't Get Any Countrier Than This"--with its skinny dipping, roll in the hay, crank my tractor sexual imagery--NOT A MOMENT TOO SOON showcases McGraw's drawlin' good time delivery on a section of party-hearty arrangements.
Personnel: Tim McGraw (vocals); Mark Casstevens, Larry Byrom (acoustic guitar); Brent Rowan, Dann Huff (electric guitar); Sonny Garrish (steel guitar, dobro); Glen Duncan, Stuart Duncan (fiddle); Matt Rollings, Randy McCormick (piano); Gary Smith (Hammond B-3 organ); Mike Brignardello (bass); Lonnie Wilson (drums); Curtis Young, Curtis Wright (background vocals).

Here in the Real World CD (1989)
Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) CD music In 1989, country music honky tonk revivalist Alan Jackson scored his first number one hit with "I'd Love You All Over Again" -- not bad for being only his fifth single. Interestingly enough, it was a ballad, but a hard country ballad nonetheless. The songs sits somewhere in the no man's land between George Jones and Randy Travis, and floats uneasily seeking an edge. The title track is another hard country ballad, and with its sweet lonesome fiddle it was a more logical choice, but what the hell. The bottom line is that while Here in the Real World may not be Jackson's strongest record, it still stands head and shoulders over most of the competition, and that includes Curtain Shirt Brooks, that is, Garth. Producers Keith Stegall and Scott Hendricks understood that Jackson's country sensibilities are a boon, not a bane, in terms of putting his particular brand of new traditionalism onto the charts. Other winners are the honky tonkers such as "Blue Blooded Woman," "Chasin' That Neon Rainbow," and "She Don't Get the Blues," which feels as much like Merle Haggard doing Bob Wills as it does new country. This is a solid effort and established the fact that Jackson was just beginning to come into his own. ~ Thom Jurek

Personnel: Alan Jackson (vocals); Jimmy Capps, Bruce Watkins (acoustic guitar); Brent Mason, Steve Gibson (electric guitar); Paul Franklin, Weldon Myrick (steel guitar); Rob Hajacos (fiddle); Hargus "Pig" Robbins (piano); Harold Bradley (6-string bass); Roy Huskey Jr., Larry Paxton, Dave Pomeroy (bass); Eddie Bayers (drums); Keith Stegall, Denny Henson (background vocals).

Don't Rock the Jukebox CD (1991)
Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) buy CD music Alan Jackson's first album, 1989's HERE IN THE REAL WORLD, presented the singer/songwriter in a sensitive-balladeer mold along the lines of Randy Travis. But by 1991, Garth Brooks's more extroverted brand of country was all the rage, and Jackson's second album, DON'T ROCK THE JUKEBOX, brought out his honky-tonk side. Besides the instant-classic title track, still a honky-tonk jukebox anthem, the album includes the Number One hit "Love's Got A Hold On You," the outstanding "Midnight In Montgomery" (a tongue-in-cheek ghost story about being haunted by Hank Williams), and "Just Playin' Possum," a torch-passing duet with George Jones. Jackson proves that he still has a way with a ballad on the lovely "That's All I Need To Know," but overall, DON'T ROCK THE JUKEBOX is new-traditionalist country with a harder honky-tonk edge.
Recorded at Recording Arts, 16th Avenue Sound, Sound Emporium, and Digital Recorders, Nashville, Tennessee.
Personnel: Alan Jackson, George Jones (vocals); Brent Mason (acoustic & electric guitars); Bruce Watkins (acoustic guitar); Danny Groah (electric guitar); Paul Franklin, Robbie Flint (steel guitar); Rob Hajacos, Mark McClurg (fiddle); Hargus "Pig" Robbins, Dirk Johnson (piano); Roy Huskey Jr., Michael Rhodes, Roger Wills (bass); Bruce Rutherford (drums, background vocals); Eddie Bayers (drums).

Brooks & Dunn Brand New Man CD (1991)
Lot About Livin' (And a Little 'Bout Love) songs Well, this is it--the album that put dancing back in country music, and in turn, placed Brooks & Dunn at the top of the country music hierarchy.
Kix Brooks and Ronnie Dunn, dyed-in-the-wool honky tonkers, two-step it to the top of the charts with a package of blistering beer-drinkin', boot-scootin' country rockers. In fact, it is "Boot Scootin' Boogie" which transformed the sound of country music and actually charted on the national dance charts!
The high-powered duo rev up their twangy groove and blast through song after song, determined to keep you on the dance floor. But don't mistake this album for lightweight novelty dance tunes. Ronnie, Kix, and their collaborator Don Cook write strong, melodic country hits. There are actual blue collar emotions beyond the electric slides and tush pushes.
There are songs about lost loves ("Working On My Next Broken Heart"), women to moon over ("Cool Drink Of Water"), and a fair share of lessons about relationships ("I'm No Good"). And who better to pour your heart out to ("I've Got A Lot To Learn") than your preferred bartender in your favorite honky tonk ("Neon Moon").
This is powerful duo, with straight-forward harmonies, muscular musicianship, and top-notch material. BRAND NEW MAN is first-rate.
Recorded at Tree Studio, Nashville, Tennessee.
Brooks & Dunn: Kix Brooks, Ronnie Dunn (vocals).
Additional personnel: Brent Mason (electric guitar); Bruc Bouton (steel & lap steel guitars); Mark Casstevens (acoustic guitar, mandolin); Rob Hajacos (fiddle); John Barlow Jarvis (piano, keyboards); Glenn Worf, Mike Chapman (bass); Lonnie Wilson (drums); Dennis Wilson, Harry Stinson, John Wesley Ryles (background vocals).
