Sold It contains songs that are romantic and funny. This album is just plain fun. You won't be disappointed. I have had this album since it first came out in 1995 and still love it. My three favorite are "Sold", "I Can Love You Like that", and "Holdin' on to Something. " Most of these country songs are real and people can relate to. You've got to check this album out.
Good, not great ( B - )
Still polished, still safe, the songs here are atypical of his nature, but they are romantic, and fairly creative. His third, self-titled album is better than his first two, "Life's A Dance", and "Kick It Up". 'Sold (The Grundy County Auction County Incident) is so much fun, and at a short two and a half minutes, you'd better enjoy it while it lasts. For once, he isn't afraid to get real 'hee-haw' and make it a solid country song. (In my top ten for best country songs ever recorded. Big kudos John!) 'Cowboy Love' is also a big fun ruckus, although it doesn't have the 'real music' freedom of 'Sold'. 'No Man's Land' gives mothers across the land great appreciation and understanding. One of the best songs on here. Another affectionate song, is the best ballad, 'Long As I Live' that can top any of his other big love songs, but cannot surpass his best one, "Friends". The same doesn't go for 'I Can Love You Like That'. It is good, but still yearns and aches with too much melodrama. The other ballad does get deep, but won't make you roll your eyes. With a couple of other ballads and boot kickers, it won't disappoint. It won't wow you either. This is speaking about the whole album. SOME songs will wow ya. He is actually a great guitar player and has one of the best country voices today. The material can be better. Look for his fourth and strongest release, "What I Do The Best".
True Country
If you're a country fan you must have this album. John Michael Montgomery is one of the best male voices in country music, whether it's a fun up-beat song like 'Sold' that can't help but put a smile on your face and set your feet to dancing, or a tender romantic ballad like 'I can love you like that' or 'Heaven sent me you' that can melt your heart. And if you're not a country fan, give this a try . . I bet you'll love it.
One Of The Best Albums.
It Was Released In The Spring Of 1995. This Album Is One Of The Best Albums That John Michael Has Ever Put Out. Once Again The Pop Group All-4-One Did Another Remake Of Another John Michael Song "I Can Love You Like That" Which Became Another Number 1 Hit For John Michael. The Dance Tune "Sold" Became A Dance Hit. For The Reviewer Ann Up Above She Should Watch CMT For The Video. He Pays A Tribute To His Favorite Country Artists George Strait And George Jones On "Cowboy Love". "Long As I Live" Became Another Top Ten Hit In The Spring Of 1996. Keep Them Going John Michael.
