Lyle Lovett Lyle Lovett and His Large Band Country Music CD Review
Richly talented Country artist Lyle Lovett has released him latest album titled Lyle Lovett and His Large Band and Wow! It’s good.
The CD kicks off with an outstanding track, The Blues Walk, that I anticipate will be heard on radio stations everywhere, and deservedly so. It’s a really nice track.
Lyle Lovett is one of those musicians that has the ability to just win you over with him talent. The kind of artist it’s really a treat to be able to listen to.
Overall Lyle Lovett and His Large Band is an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up and is most definitely a worthy addition to any Country collection. Truly an outstanding Country CD. One of those that is completely void of any wasted time, as each track is simply superb.
While this entire album is really very good some of my favorites are track 6 – What Do You Do / The Glory Of Love, track 7 – I Married Her Just Because She Looks Like You, and track 1 – The Blues Walk
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 12 – Once Is Enough. Good stuff!
