Jamey Johnson: In Color (Live)
Jamey Johnson: In Color (Live at David Letterman Show)
“Johnson, 33, has recently found success as a performer – winning the Academy of Country Music Song of the Year award for “In Color,” a classic story-song literally and figuratively full of black-and-white imagery from “That Lonesome Song” – but he’s been a respected songwriter in Music City for several years.” The Boston Globe
Lee Ann Womack: Solitary Thinking
Lee Ann Womack: Solitary Thinking (Live at 2009 ACM Awards)
“What I like about this song is that it has a completely contemporary arrangement- not very country at all – which is usually bad, right? However, this single also features a completely country lyric, filled with heartbreak at every step. Lee Ann lets out the perfect emotion, a resigned kind of loneliness, that she thinks only some “solitary thinkin’ and lonesome drinking” will solve. Listening to it with Lee Ann’s voice and that lyric, this song is undeniably country- it just doesn’t fit into any other genre, especially pop.” Waylon Paune, My Kind of Country
My Kind of Country’s Chris Dean wrote the review!

Trace Adkins (Feat. the West Point Cadet Glee Club): Til The Last Shot’s Fired (Live)
“With five minutes in the middle of the ACM Awards last Sunday night, Trace Adkins managed to showcase a powerful song with a restrained vocal performance that hopefully will help make our radio friends realize that Trace Adkins is more than just the singer of silly songs like “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk” and “Marry For Money.” On a show where vocalists were constantly overrun with their backing band’s music, Adkins didn’t succumb to such pedestrian problems as he caressed “‘Til The Last Shot’s Fired,” a song that makes almost every other modern ‘war’ song pale in comparison.” Roughstock/Matt Bjorke
George Strait: You Look So Good In Love
George Strait: You Look So Good In Love (Live)
“Geaoge Strait sat by and watched a new generation of country musicians take top honors Sunday night at the 44th annual Academy of Country Music Awards, but Monday night was all his as most of those performers tipped their hats to the veteran Texas troubadour, singled out as the ACM’s “Artist of the Decade.” LA Times
