Nov 8, 2012Ranks with his best albums, and a good purchase for anybody who wants some upbeat and very real country in their collection. Good intro to the genre for the country-curious.

Sep 20, 2012Dat shrimp has no clue what good music is. Dwight just hit it out of the park with this one. Maybe shrimp can act like he likes this one too. Who knows? Great album to have been gone for so long.

Oct 8, 2012One of his best ever, and that's saying something. He has no peer at combining country and pop styles in an organic way - really, he's a genius and this is ample evidence of that.
