Free Music Review: The Essence of Lyle
Hit: 5 Stars
Two complete cd's, great music throughout. Perfect album if you have to drive all the way across Texas, just put it on and get lost.Free Music Review: Lyle Lovett
Hit: 5 Stars
What a fantastic album of cover songs. Lyle Lovett is a true Texan, and this double album covers the great Texas songwriters that did not have the exposure they should have had all along. Thanks to Lyle Lovett, these songs are now known throughout the US and beyond. It takes guts to do a complete album of covers, and he pulls it off with respect while adding his own voice to the music. If you haven't heard it, buy it now!

Free Music Review: Eerie
Hit: 5 Stars
The irony is that I bought this, and later saw Lovett in concert, when I was in Iowa, which is genuinely pathetic since I live two blocks from Klein, Texas.
I bought this when I was in college and, if it had been an LP, I would have played it smooth in about a semester. I admit I chose it for "More Pretty Girls than One" and "the Texas River Song", which are the only two PD songs on it, and secondarily for the Townes Van Zandt material. The other songs on it are excellent, as well (I just wasn't familiar with them when I bought it).
And, for the record, whatever you think of his music stylistically, just because he doesn't pander to the Nashville sound or the lower denominators of the genre doesn't mean he's pseudo-country. This sounds like rural Southeast Texas looks. It makes perfect sense in context.
Free Music Review: Not ironic at all...in fact, a total pleasure
Hit: 5 Stars
Anyone who considers Lyle Lovett's music "pseudo-country" is sleeping. Is there no room for someone who's a true innovator and truly original? And if sonmeone the likes of Lyle Lovett wants to pay tribute to the music and writers that influenced him, then I think that's an absolutely wonderful thing and allows those of us who DO appreciate the man's music to see where it all comes from. If Lovett's looks even fall into the equation here, then the reviewer is paying attention to the wrong areas completely. I discovered Lovett with his debut album when I worked in country radio in Florida and have never regretted it a single day. The world needs more Lyle Lovetts.Free Music Review: Non-country fans, take note...
Hit: 5 Stars
This is one of the finest albums in my collection, let alone one of the finest collection of gritty, yet subtle country/folk you'll ever hear. I don't consider myself a fan of country, but I wouldn't necessarily call this country. This, to me, is quintessential American music. The two disc set has enough variety to please all ears and its sonic qualities are nearly flawless. It's a real treat on the ears. It also rips or lifts your heart. It's the rare album that evokes such a broad range of emotions.
Imagery is big, and I can't help but be drawn to some dusty West Texas town when I listen to this music. I paint such a vivid picture of the places in my mind. It's one of my favorite albums to listen to on late night drives.
