FORMER Lonestar band bassplayer and vocalist John Rich left in 1998 to team up with Big Kenny (William Kenneth Alpin) and form the duo team Big and Rich.
Major success followed IN 2004 with their first studio album, Horse Of A Different Colour, which included contributions from other artists including Gretchen Wilson, Cowboy Troy and Martina Mcbride.
Rich released a solo single last year followed up with this album release.
The tracks includes the singles Another Yo u and Shuttin' Detroit Down which has already got to Number 12 in the Billboard Hot Country Songs Chart.
Some tracks relate to Rich's soapbox in relation to politics, religion and greed in Middle America, but it is nonetheless a great listen. From hard driving toe-tapping beats, to romantic love songs there is an eclectic mix of musical changes.
If you like contemporary country it's a great one for you to add to your collection.
