A megahit with young country fans, Kenny Chesney may seem like an accidental star, but he's succeeded largely by understanding what his following wants to hear. No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems taps directly into the squiggly vein that runs between adolescence and adulthood, when responsibilities call and Jimmy Buffett dreams beckon. As much a celebration of life as of youth itself, the album succeeds best when Chesney turns wistful and thought-provoking ("A Lot of Things Different," "Good Stuff") and makes firm decisions about what really matters in life. Sentimentality reigns supreme--you can already imagine a sea of flickering cigarette lighters when he does this material live--but as "Big Star," a song about a girl who wants to be just that, spells out, No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems is a solid affirmation to go for what you want in this silly ol' world. Chesney certainly has, and if this short, bald guy from tinytown, Tennessee, can catch a rainbow, the rest of us ought to take heart. --Alanna Nash

4.0 out of 5 stars Another awesome effort!, July 7, 2002

By	K. Stuckey "kateling" (Port Huron, MI USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was hoping when I heard the title of this CD that the cover would have Kenny Chesney with no shoes and no shirt. No such luck. It is another great effort by Kenny though, and this CD is nearly perfect.

The songs range from the rockin' ("Young") to the touching ("The Good Stuff") and the inspiring ("Big Star"). The title track is my personal favorite and I hope it will be single on radio. The last track is the most haunting though, with some help from buddy Tim McGraw, Kenny pours his heart out and it kind of ends the CD on a down note - the reason for subtracting a star.

Kenny Chesney's star is on the rise because he is an awesome singer, but at the same time a guy next-door type. This CD is great!

5.0 out of 5 stars 'No Problems' Here, May 4, 2002

By	J. M. Zuurbier (Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Kenny Chesney took a break from the recording studio for a while, but he's back with his first studio album since 1999's EVERYWHERE WE GO. NO SHOES, NO SHIRT, NO PROBLEMS is well worth the wait. The album features songs which run through a similar vein, reliving memories and the past, all with a sense of carefree and freedom to them. The first single "Young" is a song many can relate with, remembering one's youth where you were free and you marched to your own drum, no fears, no regrets. The title track has a tropical like feel to it, with a carefree feeling and relaxed approach. Songs like "Big Star", and "Dreams", tell the story about never giving up on your dreams, and watching them come true. There are also some commanding ballads that you would expect from Chesney, such as "A Lot of Things Different", "I Remember", "On The Coast of Somewhere Beautiful", "One Step Up", and "I Can't Go Back There". Overall it seems that Kenny took time off, and it was well worth it, with another consistent good album, perhaps up in the running for his best since 1997's I WILL STAND. Overall its a great album for the summer time, or any mood your in, give it a listen!

5.0 out of 5 stars His Best Album Ever...And a great Album Overall, June 24, 2002

By	K. Roth (Columbiaville, MI United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the best album that Kenny Chesney has produced yet. There is literally not one bad song on it. I bought it a week ago and have not yet taken it out of the cd player. There are a lot of ballads on this album. The title song "No shoes, No shirt..." is an island type song about him dreaming of getting away from it all. It has an "island" feel to it without the steel drum. "Live the Songs" is my favortie track...it is very upbeat and is about a guy who wishes that he could relive the parts of his life that he is reminded of when he hears a certain song. "Young" is of course the first release about adolescence. #6- A slower song about a gal that he is thinking of and he knows that she has moved on with her life and is living "On the Coast of Somewhere Beautiful. #4- The Good Stuff-is his latest release and he sang it on the ACM's. I could go on and on, but you get the picture. In the CD insert, it did not have the words but it gives a story from Kenny Chesney about what the songs are really about and why he decided to record them. If you like his music style and are looking for an easy listening cd that you don't have to skip a bunch of songs...then this is the one!
