Under The Influence

We've Been Blessed

Review Score: StarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStarStar (10/10)
and will continue to be as long as our favorite male 'Country' singer Mr Alan Jackson goes on to release albums like the ones in his past And this "Under The Influence" album! As I add this album to keep my AJ collection updated I find this one just Proves what a Talented man Alan is since he keeps selecting songs for their message each and every time and keeps us coming back for more--whether he writes them himself or selects them from his fellow songwriter's stashes. Even though there is not one song that is not worthy of being on this album,,, This Time I was able to give a 5 star rating to one song in particular and that is "The Blues Man" which was a Hank Wms Jr song and was autobiographical for Hank. The musicians have really enhanced this song and besides the fact that I believe Alan is singing this song as a tribute to the marriage Hank and his current wife have been living and the road they traveled to reach it, it also brings back the slow, romantic feelings we are craving and not getting with all the fast paced songs radio thinks we are Only wanting to hear. Alan's voice does indeed get better with each new song he sings for us.

I noticed on a couple of Alan's past albums,,,on Who I Am for instance he revived "Thank God For The Radio" in that he put it on the album but it was not released as a single. Also, on Alan's Everything I Love album he put his own touch on "Who's Cheatin' Who" and I believe that was a top 10 song for him. He has been talking about keeping the living legends' music alive and he has accomplished that goal with this Wonderful album which is all traditional country music except for Margaritaville,,,,which was Fun and that is also something Alan brings to us...his sense of wit is Excellent. Sure hope everyone gives this album a listen and enjoys it Half as much as I have...and buy one for a friend...they will see what Alan can do ...and that is Make Magic as he satisfies our need for the Best.

Thank you, Alan, as I believe you really Do read your email and snail mail and have been humbly listening to your fans' suggestions for an album of songs from our living legends; and Thank you to his band The Strayhorns as I relive hearing "Pop A Top" and "The Blues Man" in person at the Evansville, IN concert on Oct 9th--that song especially just saturated the air...
