Okay, so maybe Mark Chesnutt isn't as deserving of the title as, say, Conway Twitty, Merle Haggard, George Jones, or Waylon Jennings...but he's close! His music is pure country, plain and simple. And that's the way I like it!
This album contains all of his best singles, the ones we've come to know and love. "Too Cold At Home," "She Dreams," "Thank God For Believers," and the re-make of the Aerosmith hit "I Don't Want to Miss A Thing" all add a softer, gentler side to the CD. "Brother Jukebox," "I'll Think of Something," "Your Love Is a Miracle," and "I Just Wanted You To Know" have a smooth, mediocre feel to them. Then come the honky-tonk rockers: "Bubba Shot The Jukebox" (okay, so it's a smooth, mediocre honky-tonk rocker); "It Sure Is Monday"; "Gonna Get a Life"; and "It's a Little Too Late" (penned by Chesnutt).
All-in-all, this album provides a variety of tunes, while keeping it all "Chesnutt Country". His voice is able to convey emotions, and dig straight to our hearts or feet, depending on the feel of the song. This is for you country fans; the ones that want a good, down-home feeling album to sit back and listen to.
This is one of the best albums I own, and I would recommend it to anyone. While several of his big hits are not on this album, plenty are, such as "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" and "Your Love is a Miracle," the latter of which is quite possibly my favorite Mark Chesnutt song. I think this album is a must-own for any country music fan. I think it is impressive.
You can't go wrong with Mark Chesnutt! I have yet to take it out of my CD player. His best songs are on here, including my favorites "Bubba Shot The Jukebox" and "It Sure Is Monday". The only complaint I have is the absence of "Going Through The Big D", which should not be much of a miss since radio is seeing a resurge of the song for some reason. Anyway, buy this CD, I'm glad I did!
I received the CD in within time frame given. Great CD and a good experience. Love buying through Amazon. Very happy with the purchase.
