5.0 out of 5 stars The finest Country album in years., February 19, 2000

This offering from Tracy Byrd is without doubt the finestCountry album in years. The album kicks off with a typical bouncy opener about a man who gets over the struggles of life with the love of his wife. T he album progresses with Tracy Byrd in fine form on the ballad 'I wanna feel that way again'. At track 4 is what i consider to be one of the most beautiful ballads ever written 'For me its you'. This is a song about god given talents that each and every person on this earth has, for Tracy Byrd it is the Lady in his life. Track 8 features some of the best guitar work to come out of Nashville in some time. Tracy saves the best until last with the classic 'I'm from the country' This is the one song for me, that typifies country music, everytime i here it i cannot resist the temptaton to sing out every word along with its most tallented vocalist, this song will surely become the ultimate Country Music anthem. A brilliant album that deserves each and every one of the many plaudits it recieved from the Country Music press. Buy this album right away.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very high quality modern country, February 1, 1999

This review is from: I'm From The Country (Audio CD)

Tracy Byrd's latest effort is a very strong one. It is just plain good country. He manages to stay true to his traditional Texas roots and add some occasional pop sensibilities and produce a solid CD. Top to bottom, very good, with a nice mix of ballads and faster tunes. If you like country, you will probably like this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Byrd stays true to his country roots!, November 8, 2001

By now, it's no surprise that Tracy is a favorite of our whole staff. But, then again, we tend to think millions of cowboys and cowgirls share our opinion. With so many artists jumping on new trends, taking off their hats and throwing out the fiddle and steel, Tracy comes back even stronger with 'I'm From the Country, and I like it that way!' That's because Tracy Byrd is the real deal. His career has been growing at a nice steady pace. As the trends swing back and forth, artists like Tracy will still be there strong as ever.

This album shows a little bit more serious side to Tracy with several slow to mid-tempo love songs including Gettin' Me Over Mountains, I Wanna Feel That Way Again, For Me It's You and I've Got What It Takes. Back To Texas is also another classic lost-love song with one of the best fiddle solos ever recorded. It's short; but, hits you right in your heart.

Well, for the fifth time Byrd has made our Top 100 of All Time. This album would close a chapter in Byrd's career as the last full-length album for MCA Nashville. Next, Byrd finds freedom in a new label, producer and sound.
