5.0 out of 5 stars Quintessential Alan Jackson songs from the heart, 10 Nov 2004
By R. A. Gorzynski (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There is a distinct air of melancholy on this latest Alan Jackson set (his 14th) with many of the songs dealing with loss and sadness ('Rainy Day in June','You Don't Have to Paint Me a Picture, 'Monday Morning Church') although a couple ('If French Fries Were Fat Free'and 'USA Today') are tempered by his trade mark humour. The high point of the album for me is definitely the autobiographical 'To Do What I Do' recorded live, although I've found that all of the tracks really grow on you with repeated listens, especially 'Monday Morning Church', 'If Love Was a River' and the everyman song 'There Ya Go'.

Ironically, the song I like least, 'Too Much of a Good Thing' was the track chosen by the record label as the lead-off single for the album in the US, so it's well worth digging a little deeper if this is the only track you've heard. Perhaps it could be said that there's nothing really new here, just simple, effective and sometimes profound songs immaculately delivered. But that says more about the consistent quality of Alan Jackson's albums over the years than anything else!

5.0 out of 5 stars In a mellow mood, 15 Sep 2005
By Peter Durward Harris "Pete the music fan" (Leicester England) - See all my reviews
(#1 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
In his younger days, Alan included plenty of rocking up-tempo songs on his albums. These days, the up-tempo songs are fewer but Alan still delivers country music of the highest quality while remaining true to his country roots.

So the ballads and mid-tempo songs dominate here, whether upbeat (Too much of a good thing, There ya go), sad (Rainy day in June, USA today, You don't have to paint me a picture, Strong enough, Monday morning church) or reflective (If love was a river, If French fries were fat free).

Alan shows a comedic touch in The taking song repair blues, in which he gets even (in a nice way) with a car mechanic who over-charges for his services - you are likely to enjoy this if you also enjoyed One piece at a time (the Johnny Cash classic). The most up-tempo song here is Burning the honky tonk down, in which the musicians let rip although even on this song, Alan keeps his vocals restrained. The album closes with a live recording of To do what I do.

This album is not my favorite of Alan's (I prefer his early albums that had plenty of rocking country songs). Nevertheless, it is another great album from Alan.

2.0 out of 5 stars Alan Jackson Don't get boring!, 15 Nov 2004
Having purchased this latest offering from Alan I must say that I am somewhat dissappointed.Some of the songs seem a bit bland and are rehashed versions of previous tracks on other albums.Not exactly vintage Alan by any means.Perhaps the strongest song would be To Do What I Do which is catchy and is good live.Originality and well thought out lyrics have always, I think ,been Alans strongpoints and I hope he is not on the verge of getting boring!
