Free Music Notes for PontiacFree Music Review: Tour de Force Hit: 5 StarsThis album reveals fully the versatility of Lyle Lovett, more than a mere country singer. The range of emotion, lyric and musicality is broad, from the softly sorrowful "I Loved You Yesterday" (one of my favorites) and the lovely "Simple Song," (absolutely beautiful -- another favorite) to the offbeat and jazzy "She's No Lady" and the feisty "She's Hot to Go." (Although the latter 2 can be seen as evidence of what some feel is Lyle Lovett's misogynic tendencies, I think they just reveal the somewhat jaded and saddened view of a man who may have had some bad luck with women!) The title piece, "Pontiac" is also moving and lyrical. What a talented songwriter he is.
Free Music Review: Lyle is Amazing! Hit: 5 StarsI fell in love with Lyle's music through these earlier albums. You will too!
Free Music Review: Awesome album!!! Hit: 5 Starsthis album is by far the best mix of country and blues I have ever heard.
Free Music Review: Gotta Love Lovett, "Man with the Big Hair" Hit: 4 StarsIf you are a Lyle Lovett fan you will like this CD. Pontiac I bought this CD for the song "She's Hot to Go", but like the
rest of the songs as well. Good Country Music.
Free Music Review: Multi-sided Hit: 4 StarsI'm not sure that this is my personal favorite Lovett album but it's very good. The material is a bit eclectic. He's kind of known for that, and in a way it's interesting, but it seems a bit odd if you're not expecting it. It's got a little of everything: Discontent ("Pontiac"), humor, ("Give Back My Heart"), a little cynicism ("M-O-N-E-Y"), and one good old-fashioned country murder ballad ("L.A. County"), among other things.
