Mixed Review
I think Jack is a great talent. Not the worst, but not the best. Having seen him perform live, I immediately thought this CD would be fantastic! WRONG! It is mediocre.
While he does thank you for buying the CD, & does a great rendition of "Only Daddy that'll Walk the Line. " Plus, songs like "Mustang Burn" & Barbie Doll show off his talent and sarcasm much better than "Love You. " Which, incidentally, HAS been a massive "Commercial radio success" So perhaps Jack would want to be careful when recording songs like "Happy Happy, Country Country, where he pretty much slams country radio and the fans who listen to it. Don't bite the hand that feeds you Jack!
Still, this CD, in my mind is just an "OK" effort. Maybe it was that mix of "Live, vs. Recorded? I don't know. It just left me feeling like it not only could have been better, it SHOULD have been better!
Oh, and someone tell CMT that if they are going to show the video for "Love You" to PLEASE show the REAL one! The woman in the viseo isn't using a baseball bat, she's using a shotgun to tear up that truck.


All good, some great
Jack, as always, wavers between southern rock and country, and he's close enough to rock to make him unique as a country artist. There really isn't a weak song on this album. Love You is a classic. The editing lacks some continuity, but overall its a great collection. .


Don't hesitate. Buy now!
The rest of the cd really has that rocking Texas feel. The only reason that I didn't give this 5 stars is that the first song, which is track #2 (because track # 1 is an intro by Jack) is a little slow for me. I love the idea that most of these songs were done at Gruen TX (an old cotten German town inside the limits of New Braunfels, TX)--it's one of mine and my husband's favorite fun places to visit. Some say that Jack sounds abit like Steve Earle. He does, but his songs are more upbeat with a bit more good times type feeling. Anyway, buy the cd--you won't be disappointed.


Great CD!
The new songs are fun and cool to sing to. Jack just proves the kind of talent he has with Live Where Ever You Are. I like all of the live cuts it shows more emotion than the studio cuts of these tracks. .


This is not a new live album
A 30 second spoken intro "Hello", 2 studio tracks "Wherever you are" & "Love you", a 2005 CMT radio broadcast "Never knocked me down". "Live wherever you are" is just a studio single. The 10 other tracks have already been released as part of the 2004 "Live at Gruene Hall", recorded on december 14, 2002. And this isn't mentioned anywhere!.
