Precious Memories»rank: 930par: Alan Jackson
Chroniques et points de vue:From :A few decades ago nearly every country singer had at least one--often more--gospel albums in their catalog. Today, aside from gospel veteran Amy Grant, who balances the sacred and secular, and Randy Travis, that concept has long faded. For Alan Jackson, however, treating the musical past as present has been a way of life, as it is with these 15 timeless hymns from his youth. Recorded with just two acoustic guitars and a piano, it was originally a private Christmas present to his mother. The spare instrumentation is surprisingly ... |

Greatest Hits Volume II»rank: 3593par: Alan Jackson
Chroniques et points de vue:From :You don't have to get very far into Alan Jackson's splendid second anthology of hits before you're struck by how well the rangy Georgian has built his catalogue and how beautifully Keith Stegall continually produces his songs, filling the instrumental breaks with unexpectedly creative solos. While Jackson's choice of cover songs is usually inspired ('Pop-A-Top,' 'Little Bitty'), he's a deft writer, alternating his tongue-in-cheek, Sheriff Andy Taylor persona with his 'just a singer of simple songs' earnestness, lacing it all with an unfettered delivery and a Haggardesque dedication to ... |

The Greatest Hits Collection»rank: 3873par: Alan Jackson
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:As a superstar who's revered by both the young country audience and traditionalists, Alan Jackson is at his finest when he's steers clear of trifles like 'Chattahoochie' and takes those younger fans to school. Here he does just that by paying respects to Hank ('Midnight in Montgomery'), swearing allegiance to George Jones ('Don't Rock the Jukebox'), and calling out all those newcomers who've decided it's time to get twangy now that country's hot ('Gone Country'). All of it pales next to 'Here in the Real World,' however, as ... |

Drive»rank: 16007par: Alan Jackson
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:He sings straight, writes songs without a half dozen Music Row hacks pitching in their two cents and keeps the music basic. 0n Drive, Jackson mixes wistful visions with satire, sorrow and eloquence, using old cars ('Drive (For Daddy Gene)') to explore growing up and, on 'Work ln Progress', spoofing a woman obsessed with 'improving' her man. As usual, he explores love's joy ('When Love Comes Around') and anguish ('The Sounds'). His flair for thoughtful, evocative expression reaches its zenith with his classic nine-11 commentary 'Where Were You (When ... |

Like Red On A Rose»rank: 12331par: Alan Jackson
Chroniques et points de vue:From : The idea of twang king Alan Jackson pairing up with Alison Krauss for an album of love songs might seem heretical to some, especially if they heard only the first cut, the adult-contemporary ballad 'Anywhere on Earth You Are.' But producer Krauss, whom Jackson approached to make a traditional bluegrass record, always knew there was a sensuous heart beating beneath his aw-shucks demeanor, one that would fit perfectly with the intimate repertoire, genre-bending musical framework, and virtuoso players she'd always chosen for herself. (Robert Lee Castleman, one of ... |

When Somebody Loves You»rank: 26149par: Alan Jackson
Chroniques et points de vue: essential recording:ln the decade since his debut, Alan Jackson has matured as both singer and songwriter while his resolute traditionalism remains unchanged. As usual, his original numbers account for the best moments, including the hit 'www.memory' and heartland anthem 'Where l Come From,' both outclassing the cartoonish non-original 'lt's Alright to Be a Redneck,' yet another variation on Jeff Foxworthy's tired comedic hook. Jackson's masterful title track reiterates his genius with a ballad, as does his passionate interpretation of Robert Lee Castleman's loungy 'Maybe l Should Stay Here.' Don't ... |
