Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Because his singing is solid but unremarkable, Alan Jackson tends to be only as good as his song selection. So on several tracks here--his own composition "Buicks To The Moon," for example, or Tom T. Hall's slighter-than-it-fancies-itself "Little Bitty"--he isn't exactly sunk by clunky metaphors and cliched arrangements, but he can't rise above them either. However, on the title track here, and on the searing, twangy power ballad "Between The Devil And Me," he's as good as he's ever been. Which is very good indeed. --David Cantwell

Oh, yees, everything you love about country music is included on this CD.
It`s "easy listening country, with the right touch and flair that smells quality all over. It kicks of with the right yiaah on Track 1 Little Bitty. Very earfriendly and country swingin` mood on this song with lot`s of radioplay hitpotensial. Track 2 Everything I Love, is an ok ballad, but is a minor letdown.Travels into cliche`s country too soon. Track 3 Buicks to the Moon, is more into "walkalong" rythmic country.Relaxable and joyfull. Track 4 Between the devil and me, has a "gunsmoker" feel over it. It`s more experimental,and has a great chorus on the refrain. Track 5 There goes, is more into "walk along" mood, easy listning kind of thing. As radioplay friendly ... Read More:

In any artist's career, there comes a point where they can record almost anything and have a hit. "Little Bitty" is that point for Alan Jackson. Anyone that can have hit records with nursery rhymes deserves respect. Doubly so if, like Jackson, they can take a positively inane song and make it sound good!
So the weakest part of the album starts at 5 stars - quite honestly, where do you go from there? If you don't have this album, buy it, now.
On a personal note (being a part-time musician), my favourite moment on the album is the wonderfully over-the-top steel guitar solo in the closing track "It's Time You Learned About Goodbye". But then Paul Franklin (steel guitarist) has achieved deity-like status amongst those in the ... Read More:

There were four singles released from this album. The title track is about how all life's pleasures (including his partner) are ruining him and he's going to have to give them up. Little bitty was written by Tom T Hall and would surely have been a major hit for him had he written it in the seventies. However, he wrote it long after most people had lost interest in his music, so Tom was grateful to Alan for having a number one country hit with it and rekindling interest in his own music. Who's cheating who was originally a number one country hit for the brilliant but largely forgotten pop-country singer Charly McClain. Alan adapted it to his own style and had a top ten country hit with it. The fourth single was There goes, a song about conflicting ... Read More:

You can never knock traditional country music,and this album is yet another in a long-line to prove that statement. Alan Jackson has a powerful,strong voice and expresses it towards us in an emotional and touching way. The songs are wonderful-if you dwell on lyrics or if you enjoy singing along. There's catchy songs like 'Little Bitty' and 'There Goes',emotional songs-'Between the Devil and Me','Walk on Rocks'and an incredibly moving love song entitled 'Buicks to the Moon'. Pick up this album,learn an honest lesson in life and think over what you've learnt-country music is everything
