I can describe the latest release from Contemporary Country sensation Chris LeDoux for you with just one word... Outstanding!

It's a rare day indeed that I get a CD from an artist that I can truthfully say does not have a bad track in the bunch. I'm more than happy to announce that's exactly what I must say about this one. There simply is NOT a bad one in the bunch. No fillers here at all, with each song standing tall on it's own.

One of the nicer things about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Contemporary Country isn't your favorite genre you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.

If you're a Chris LeDoux fan this is a CD your collection flat cannot be without. In fact, this is one of those CDs that you don't even have to be a fan of LeDoux, or even Contemporary Country to know is good. It's just good music. Period.

While the entire CD is outstanding some of my favorites are track 1 - He Rides The Wild Horses, track 3 - Ten Seconds In The Saddle, and track 8 - A Cowboy's Got To Ride

My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 10 - Running Through The Rain. Good stuff!
