Details: Product Description Junior Brown has been nominated for 3 Grammys and has won a CMA Award for Video of the Year. His new album is expected to draw more attention than ever to this talented performer from Austin, Texas, featuring the same sly wit, dazzling guitar and classic baritone singing that have marked all his previous work. This album is even slightly edgier than what he's offered in the past, which should appeal to the Junior fans who fall outside of the usual country ranks. Amazon.ca On Long Walk Back, Junior Brown attempts to expand upon his signature sound: He leaps off into extended guitar jams; he accentuates the retro-novelty aspect of certain songs by adding anonymous background choruses; he even tries to croon a ballad. Unfortunately, the further he moves from concise honky-tonk shuffles and crisply written country tunes, the more he strays from what he does best. Long Walk Back works wonderfully when Brown keeps a tight grip on both his talented, one-of-a-kind guitar technique and on his colorful baritone voice. But when he indulges his guitar prowess, or when his voice challenges its limitations, he leaves behind what makes him special. --Michael McCall
