Not sure what's happening with me on this one, but it seems like the more I listen to it, the better Like Red On A Rose gets. Like Red On A Rose simply stated is one of Alan Jackson's best CDs to date.
Like Red On A Rose literally grabs your attention right from the very beginning with Anywhere On Earth You Are and won't let go until the very last note of the very last song Bluebird, which is another great track by the way.
The nice thing about a CD like this is with this level of talent even if Country isn't your favorite style you still can't help but appreciate the greatness of the artist.
I'm of the opinion that Like Red On A Rose is certainly Alan Jackson's best work in a few years. A totally enjoyable CD and an outstanding release. What I call must have music. I give it two thumbs up because it's a collection that even the casual Country fan can appreciate and enjoy.
Country music fans will recognize some of the well known guests that have been assembled to play along with Jackson on several of the tracks. Artists like Ron Block and Alison Krauss just to name a couple.
Like Red On A Rose is a first rate CD, delivering a little something for everyone. I give it my highest recommendation. It's quite simply great listening. A must buy for the Country fan.
While the entire album is outstanding the truly standout tunes are track 1 - Anywhere On Earth You Are, track 2 - Good Imitation Of The Blues, and track 12 - Where Do I Go From Here.
My SmoothLee Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 4 - Nobody Said That It Would Be Easy. Outstanding!
