Product Description
From Amazon.com
Lyle Lovett and His Large Band remains the big man's most ambitious album in many ways. A smart split is effected, and not only between styles--the horn-driven swing of the first half backs the record's wittiest, slyest songs, while the country-folk numbers are among Lovett's most pensive. He's not so mournful that he can't raise an eyebrow at heartache, though: try "I Married Her Just Because She Looks Like You." --Rickey Wright

Stand By Your Man,
By prisrob "pris," (New England USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A/H Large Band (Audio CD)
Lyle Lovett is a diamond among the rough. In this album his true talent shines through- he starts with a bluesy sound and ends with a more folk rock country style. He writes the lyrics, understands the simplicity of country music and is able to blend the lyrics and music with his marvelous melodic voice. He is a shy man and when seen in concert suddenly appears on stage in a brilliant white shirt, jeans and cowboy boots with his guitar in hand; the big band behind him making his music come to life while wearing white shirt and jeans. They are superb and easily swing from the blues to country.A favorite song from this CD is "Here I Am" and "Nobody Knows Me But My Baby". He sings "Stand By Your Man" as if written for him. The big band behind Lyle Lovett is able to exemplify his true voice- a simple man, singing a simple song, loving every minute of it. One of his best. prisrob

Wow!! Wow!! Wow!!,
By Batmanbrb "batmansbrb" (Seymour, IN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A/H Large Band (Audio CD)
This is an incredible release by one of the most talented and most overlooked artist of our time. This is a great combination of jazz/folk/rock/country that has ever been assembled on one disc. I really enjoy "Crying Shame" and "What Do you Do". However, the last 3 songs are my favorites and get the most play in my CD Player: "Nobody Knows Me", "If You Were to Wake Up", and "Once is Enough" - easily 3 of my all-time favorite Lyle songs. This CD is breath-takingly fresh in its instrumentation, writing, and delivery. Easily one of the best releases of late 80's.
