Review

Recent success as a songwriter allows Bruce Robison to record on his own terms, as this self-produced, self-released collection attests. Rather than striving for radio hits, the writer responsible for Tim McGraw's smash "Angry All the Time" showcases his plainspoken, subtle, and droll songcraft with a minimum of production trickery. He collaborates with wife Kelly Willis on "Friendless Marriage," which sounds like a George-and-Tammy update, while other writing partners include Allison Moorer and the Dixie Chicks' Martie Seidel. Gary Allan has already covered the album's standout anthem, "What Would Willie Do," a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the messiah of progressive country, while Bruce's brother Charlie previously recorded the album-closing "Tonight." For other artists searching for quality material that transcends formula, the balladry of "Blame It on Me" has hit potential, though "Valentine," one of the best songs here, sounds so personal it's hard to imagine anyone singing it better than the reedy-voiced Robison. --Don McLeese
