Free Music Notes for Mud on the Tires

Free Music Review: An Awesome Album Front To Back
Hit: 5 Stars

My hopes were high for this album, especially after "Part II". I was not disappointed. The writing and performance on this album is tight and polished with a wide emotional range that keep it from being repetetive.

Mud On The Tires: This was a great opener. The opening of the song is simple and clean with just an acoustic guitar and Brad singing. Then the chorus comes in with a great melody and country shuffle beat that gets you tapping your foot instantly.

Celebrity: Brad's first single off the album. The whole concept is great, especially for those of us that are less than impressed with the current reality TV trend.

Ain't Nothin' Like: This song is so Alan Jackson, you can't help but check the lyric sheet to see if he had a co-write. It is a cheerful, "aww shucks" kind of song that you will be singing along to before you know it.

Little Moments: I love this song. As I said to my wife, "This is the funniest romantic song I have ever heard." This song demonstrates one of my favorite aspects about Brad's music: He does not just write songs about new love or lost love. He often writes songs about the day to day of being in love. (Another perfect example being "Sleeping On The Foldout" from his first album)

That's Love: I simply love this song! Its funny, true and a ton of fun!

Somebody Knows You Now: This is a simply beautiful ballad. A very simply arrangement that just makes it all that more effective.

Famous People: Hilarious! This fun song is a great look at fame from the eyes of a small town kind of guy.

Hold Me In Your Arms: This is a great two-steppin' tune. Classic sound, arrangement and performance.

Whiskey Lullabye: This is my absolute favorite song on the entire album. The lyrics and melody of this song are outstanding. You will simply find yourself transfixed the first time you listen to this song. Alison Krauss' voice blends with Brad's wonderfully.

The Best Thing That I Had Goin': "Money isn't everything." That's the message behind this tune. I love shuffle beat and the rolling banjo throughout the song.

The Cigar Song: This song was certainly unusual. It tells the story of a guy who takes out an insurance policy on a box of Cuban cigars and then cashes in on it after he smokes them all. Cute.

Make A Mistake: This a great jazz influenced song. The true pay off in this song is the long instrumental portion that has Brad doing some incredible guitar work.

Is It Raining At Your House: A very well written song. I love the idea and Brad carries it off well.

Spaghetti Western: I love Jimmy Dickens. George Jones and him are hilarious in this half spoken word, half instrumental tune. Definitely a fun tune to tap your foot to.

Farther Along: As usual, Brad likes to finish with a gospel tune. This version of the traditional tune is done very well.

If you are a Brad Paisley fan, you will love this album. If you are not yet a Brad Paisley fan, you will be after listening to this album! I can't wait until the next one.
