    There's plenty of party-startin' on the country king's latest, but Good Time contains some trademark Strait talk, too. [Sep 2011, p.137]

    This winning formula should keep you around for quite a while.

    There's no fuss to his performance. He leans into the most desperate lines and nearly lets his voice crack, all in the service of the thing he's always been best at--making a heavyweight song hit home.

    If he's reaching the end of his storied career, or even just playing around with the idea of closing off his legacy, he's also managing to keep things fresh and add to his lengthy list of memorable songs.
