BIG DOG DADDY is the first album that Toby Keith wrote and produced on his own, and it features a harder edge than most of his previous records, closer to the country-rock of the Big and Rich axis than the neo-traditionalist crowd. In fact, BIG DOG DADDY seems like a sort of mid-career reset, a canny move for a country singer who sees musical trends changing on the horizon. Social trends as well: one song, "Love Me If You Can," obliquely addresses the uproar over Keith's political statements concerning the global war on terror; in the album's press materials, Keith is careful to claim allegiance to neither political party and asserts that he is in fact opposed to the Iraq war. Elsewhere, Keith wisely drops political matters entirely in favor of less incendiary country-rock topics like drinking, fighting, and women. The romantic "I Know She Hung the Moon" and the wry "High Maintenance Woman" are the album's musical and emotional poles, with hell-raising stompers like "Get My Drink On" and "Wouldn't Wanna Be Ya" sitting comfortably in the middle.

Big Dog Daddy Music Review

Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars) 4.5 stars

5 stars The Best to date
For years I didn't care much for Toby Kieth. This CD totally changed my thinking. He's keeping Country Rock alive and steering clear of "Broadway Country". He also does a great job on the ballad tunes--lots of versatility. The album has created a new fan. Thank you, Toby.

Not only is Toby a good singer, he is also a fantastic song writer. I particularly like LOVE ME IF YOU CAN, its a five star. This CD is a good collection of Toby songs.

5 stars The "REAL" Toby is Back!
I've been a toby keith fan since his early years when BOOMTOWN was released. I've seen him twice in concert and just loved him. He sang with heart felt emotion and showed his soft side and then he knew how to drive it home with his testosterone driven songs. I have all his albums, but I was disappointed with his last album "WHITE TRASH WITH MONEY" and the album before that. I didnt like all the songs from start to finish, and I felt he was just putting an album out. I was skiddish about getting "Big DOG DADDY" but I am DELIGHTED I purchased it. I didn't buy for "HIGH MAINTIENANCE WOMAN" I just bought it because it is Toby Keith. I listened from start to finish, and he has returned to what made him so "special" with BOOMTOWN and DREAM WALKIN' "WHITE ROSE" "SHE HUBG THE MOON" "BURNIN' MOONLIGHT" and "WALK IT OFF" are great heart and passionate songs on this album. There are other songs like "HIT IT" and "PUMP JACK" "GET MY DRINK ON" they are the "Real" toby Keith that made him special. So, while some people say he is better than ever he IS.....but there was a little "bumpy" spot for artistically I feel. BUT GO BUY THIS ALBUM!!!!
