This is the first country album I write about. I know there's a LOT of country music around but it ain't my first, or even second priority when it comes to music, but in this album I found some really good stuff! On Bentley's 5th album he puts some bluegrass in he's country and I find some real passion and feeling in these songs. Ecspecially the singing talks to me. I can't help singing along! The album reached nr. 9 on the Billboard chart so it seems he's a well known artist over there. Most important with this album is that it features COUNTRY, not pop!

There's many guest artists on the album, such as The Punch Brothers, Chris Thile, Miranda Lambert, Jamey Johnson, Del McCoury, Alison Krauss and Kris Kristofferson.
