- The real Deal
Mark Chessnut he is a very talented singer when it comes to country music then let me tell you this ol" boy can sing it!!!I have been listening to his music since he first arrived on the scene .From the time i first heard him sing to cold at home i said he is gonna be a star well, that prediction proved true!!!The song went to number 1 and so did everything else he released after that almost!!! I cant say that this cd is my favorite of his i dont think i can pick one but, i think if you listen to him and you like real true country music then you will want to hear more of this man!!!Almost goodbye is a good cd it starts out with a good song about partying to hard and having to go to work the next day and just how it feels to party to hard its called it sure is monday. The second song is ok it is called woman sensous woman its about a guy whos deep in love with his girl he even goes so far as to say you control the world im living in.Then theres the title track it will chill you to the bone when you hear Mark put his personal touch to the song and the guitar is awesome its a song about those little lover spats that almost ended with goodbye! I just wanted you to know is a well written song although Mark didnt write it he sang it very well and Took you to where the man in the song was in pain and living with a memory. Aprils fool is about a guy whos fell in love with a girl and she played with his heart and in the end he was left being another of Aprils Fools!!!Texas is bigger than it used to be is just a good texas honky tonk dance floor song itll make you wish you were Two stepping across a hard wood floor with thick smoke dim lights and loud music!!! My hearts to broke to pay attention tells a story of a man getting hurt to where hes got good looking women all around him and hes afraid of taking a chance with em because of how he was hurt.Vickie vance gotta dance is ok its not one of my favorites on this cd though!!!Till a better memory comes along is another one of those songs where the man was left hurting and afraid of trying at love again great song about breaking up!Then last but not least is the song the will i personally think this is a song everyone should hear especially when it comes to the death of a loved one and wills and whats left behind for the survivors The song says it all! It tell a story about a loved one dieng and the family reading the will of their last wishes.I got a little choked up i must say .Mark in my opinion is one of Nashvilles best and doesnt get the credit he deserves Well , i really dont know what else to say i havent already said give Mark a listen i guarantee itll be worth the time and money.As long as Mark is around country is in good hands After listening and you want more then go pick up his new cd Its self titled Mark Chessnut and it has his new song She was on it Only one thing to say that describes Mark "Country"!!!!!

- Generic C&W
I think Mark Chesnutt is one of the best singers in country music. His CD ALMOST GOODBYE is evidence of that, and the playing on the CD, as always, is well done and highly professional, though largely lacking innovation or inspiration.
So what's the remaining variable? The songs - if they're not good it really doesn't make any difference how good the other factors are. And the songs on ALMOST GOODBYE are for the most part generic mediocrities.
I really like "I Just Wanted You To Know" and "My Heart's Too Broke", and "Sensuous Woman" is a nicely done as a shuffle. "It Sure Is Monday" and "I Just Wanted You To Know" are pleasant enough if somewhat lightweight and overwrought respectively.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, "April Fool" and "Vickie Vance Gotta Dance" are boring, non-descript or worse, pop country. I guarantee that nobody who hears "Vickie" will care if he ever hears it again.
And finally "The Will" is one of the most stylized, most saccherine, and most irritating songs you will hear. The family is sitting in the lawyer's office for the reading of Daddy's will. Daddy of course leaves the family name to the boys, some other hogwash to the girls, etc., at which point Mama announces that she needs to pray. Just have your insulin ready.
The players on this CD are well known outstanding musicians, and their lack of inspiration may well have come from the quality of the songs they were asked to play. And Chesnutt is in great voice as always. Their talents are largely wasted on this CD.
