First Water Boy, then the Old Dogs project, now this, Reed's first feature-length album in 12 or so years. This boy doesn't get retirement. Jerry sings on half the songs (the odd-numbered ones, to be precise), and picks on the others. As with the LPs from his halcyon days in the 1970s, the instrumentals slow things down a touch. But, it's good to hear him getting away from the novelty numbers and back to some serious singing and strumming. OK, it's not likely to make anyone's desert island list (although Reed's Georgia Sunshine LP from 1970 makes mine), and it's not going to get played on any country radio stations. But, if you've appreciated Jerry's work in the past, you'll agree it's refreshing to hear him recording again.

This is Jerry Reed at his craft.Although,he isn't heard much on the radio these days-if at all.This full-lengh cd is just a sample of what the man has up his sleave.This cd is a breath of fresh air to hear.His talent is top-notch,his style unmatched,Jerry delivers the goods on this 1999 effort.This is a must for any Jerry Reed Fan.Great fun songs that only he could write,perform and inject with such style and mastery on the guitar.I gave this cd 4 star rating for the fun,talented, creative writing and of course the "Pickin'".The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I wish that this cd was longer and had more songs.What can I say- I'm a True Jerry Fan!Get this cd,you won't be sorry!

This has to be his very best! It's what I'll play, going down the road, relaxing!
